1 year agoWell written Article to explain that the Manifest is not necessarily malicious, but a clamping down on potentially abusable API, some of which AdBo currently rely on. But a Manifest V3 compatible AdBo is already in development.
Also the comparisons between no AdBlock and AdBo are absolutely hilarious and a reminder why adblocks are needed
Fun fact: Swastika’s are actually allowed for artistic and similar purposes, but in the 90’s a dodgy ruling did not consider this exception. The reasoning was the same as ‘playing violent games make you violent’ . The court feared growing up with those symbols would normalize them.
The ban got revoked in 2018
So yeah, we were kinda behind the times, but it’s getting better.
