Adtech is cyber warfare. Used to manipulate, control, and feed our minds with things that not even we understand what they're up to. There is no argument for uBlock being disabled/removed.

Fight for an internet where we're not exploited.

There’s no argument to use chrome either. Hopefully they will lose users.

I quite like Chrome. Still if ads pop up all over it's off to Firefox I guess.

I see the desktop usage percentages are 65% chrome, 6.5% firefox so I guess others do too. I think it's mostly a lack of hassle thing. Chrome usually just works and lets you read your website without moving the interface around or crashing etc.
