Google announced that starting in June 2024, ad blockers such as #uBlock Origin will be disabled in Chrome 127 and later with the rollout of Manifest V3 (#Mv3).

The new #Chrome manifest will prevent using custom filters and stops on demand updates of blocklist. Only #Google authorized updates to browser extension will be allowed in the future, which mean an automatic win for Google in their battle to stop YouTube #AdBlockers .

#ManifestV3 is deceitful and threatening to your privacy, and now is a good time to switch to #Firefox (npub100cvdyxn56frnz0p3hx5e2vnl82fphfy5ytw8qs3jpeh64zhwa6qsngkwp (npub100c…gkwp)) and/or #TorBrowser (npub1a3r2ep603h6k68vwdfhkq75g0dmv3sfvtmkdm0gqkrf4jr2zp7dqg59clu (npub1a3r…9clu)) if you haven't done so already!
