New Privacy Badger Prevents Google From Mangling More of Your Links and Invading Your Privacy

Also good for cases where a website reads your active addons. Ublock users > users of privacy badger + ublock

Excuse my ignorance, but how are these added to Ublock, as it seems such a sensible thing to do?

https://filterlists.com/lists/actually-legitimate-url-shortener-tool is bigger list and is updated more often.

YouTube is basically the only video platform where the vast majority video creators are gathered on. PeerTube and the likes are nice, but for the most part, don't even play in the same league, IMHO. YMMV depending on the content you like to consume, of course.

I mostly use a combination of DDG/Brave, but I have to fall back on Google Search way more often than I'd like to find some things. Especially for local (geographically speaking) stuff or non-English content...

It sucks that they dominate so much, but it's not particularly difficult to guess why your average person still use them, no?

Agree with sibling: Youtube and Search. All the other supposedly essential Google services are not really essential, especially Gmail.

Some of us have to work with people who are still neck deep in the google swamp, and who use their online office suite for sharing documents.

Other than that, do you know if there's a better search engine that can search by image?

no

I've used uBlock Origin & Privacy Badger for years, over a wide variety of different types of websites, and haven't had any problems.

I use ublock, but I think it is more aggressive than badger, can't remember it broke some, but will keep an eye
