Starting June 2024, adblockers such as uBlock Origin and many other extensions on Chrome will no longer work as intended. Google Chrome will begin disabling extensions based on an older extension platform, called Manifest V2, as it moves to the more limited V3 version.
What a messed up title.
The one and only reason they are doing this is to boost ad revenue.
That they even mention the word “security” in this is a farce.
It’s still as insecure as ever, since a malicious plugin can simply spy on and report on your usage.
They meant their (financial) security, not ours.
