This has been coming since they announced Manifest v3. Anyone paying any attention at all knew this was going to happen.
Imagine using you power to "vote for "/support/give power to a company who says it’s gonna kill all ad-blockers to monopolise the ad market even further … and then complain about the exact thing happening.
Using Chrome (or other Google products) is just supporting and enabling that.
If people didn’t use it, none if it would have happened.How is uBO Lite different from regular uBO?
Use Firefox.
This is the easiest problem to solve.
Switch to Firefox, be happy.
Who gives a fuck? Just stop using chrome
There was a time not too long ago where I would have just assumed a move this clearly douchey and against your customers’ desires would lead to nothing but a complete evacuation of those customers, but I’ve seen this movie play out enough times to know that somehow, someway, this will work out just fine for them. People will complain, swallow it whole, keep on using it, and finally just forget about it.
That’s why I don’t use chrome.

But why would an ad company want to block ad blockers? That makes no sense…
