Google Chrome’s plan to limit ad blocking extensions kicks off next week

Reminder to switch browsers if you haven't already!


  • Google Chrome is starting to phase out older, more capable ad blocking extensions in favor of the more limited Manifest V3 system.
  • The Manifest V3 system has been criticized by groups like the Electronic Frontier Foundation for restricting the capabilities of web extensions.
  • Google has made concessions to Manifest V3, but limitations on content filtering remain a source of skepticism and concern.

Sure as long as it's not my bank or my employer or the gov official website for accessing my taxes...

I would close my bank account and such to a different bank. It takes literally 5 minutes to open one online.

And yes, I would not work for a company that doesn't support Firefox

I would also keep pestering support of the government website, that one I will have to give to you
