Google Chrome’s plan to limit ad blocking extensions kicks off next week
Chrome's Manifest V3 transition is here. First up are warnings for any V2 extensions.

Brave's native adblock works better than anything else I've tried.
Give Brave a look, folks.
Use Firefox. The crypto bros running Brave have been caught multiple times gathering and selling user data. You use Chrome as the base when you want to hoover data.
False.
They sold data from Brave search, which you don't have to use. (and I don't.)
Also, the crypto thing is also opt-in. You don't have to use it either.
It works better than Firefox, especially if your aim is blocking ads.
"I trust these guys to not sell my data because they've only sold me data over there" is a hell of a take.
Someone has their identity tied up in this for some reason
I think that, if you're going to pretend to know what you're talking about, you should know what you're talking about.
I think it's a good thing that a person as to willingly opt-in to data collection.
It's really that simple.
They still sold user data without being upfront about it until caught, and are still running a shady-ass business. They're at the intersection of crypto, bigotry, and dishonesty.
Not using or advocating for Brave is pretty simple.
They still sold user data without being upfront about it until caught,
And then they did better, as a business should. It's all in their FAQ.
I'm not sure why there has to be a circle jerk of trolls any time someone mentions Brave, but here we are.
How much of a corporate shill are you? Do you own the company or something? Be open minded and try other things. Don't be a corporate drone. Don't defend the corporate doing as right , defend your interests first.
No thank you, I'll use Firefox instead. Brendan Eich the CEO of Brave is a POS, he donates to shitty causes and then pretends that those donations don't define him as a bigot.
"In other words, because he silently donated to causes seeking to strip rights from minority groups instead of directly harassing them, the outrage was unjustified."
It’s also a chromium based browser so good chance it will loose any ad blocking ability if google decides to play hardball.
That's fine. Do what you like.
