When Adblock Plus extension updates, it opens a webpage to sell users a "premium" version of the extension. But before showing the actual content of that webpage, there is a 8-second progress bar.
This is a fake progress bar, it measures nothing, no work is being done.

You either deploy adblocking or ransomware
Watch out for this #DarkGate campaign, quite possibly through Malvertising and using signed MSI files with very low (or zero) detection.

About uBO/Youtube: please do not follow advice from random sources, most likely they don't know what they are doing and this ends up burdening volunteers who have looked into all this and know exactly what they are doing.
Carefully follow instructions at github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAss…

Seriously: Do NOT use similar-purposed blocker(s) along with uBlock Origin: this will cripple uBO's ability to defuse anti-blocker mechanisms and its ability to minimize likelihood of site breakage. ("similar-purposed" = any other blocker making use of EasyList).
uBlock Origin retweeted
There have been notable kinks with release of uBO 1.41.0, which surfaced through feedback after publication (now solved in 1.41.6)
I *really* need more people to use the dev builds of uBO to spot regressions/kinks *before* publishing a stable release.

For 2022, how about unlisting your abandonware "uBlock" from the Chrome Web Store?
It hasn't been updated in over 2 years, and by all appearances the sole purpose of this unmaintained extension is to mislead people who seek to install the uBlock Origin.
We're excited to reflect on all we accomplished in 2021 and can't wait for the year ahead. :)

Big Sur Safari + Tracking Protection + 1Blocker (#1 extension in App Store) + Paid Plan + All filters
v.
Firefox + @ublockorigin
Nothing beats a real working ad blocker. The biggest reason to switch to @firefox

In the Releases section of uBlock Origin's repo, I state "uBO works best on Firefox". Here is an demonstration of this: the dark green/red bars are uBO before/after it gained ability to uncloak CNAMEs on Firefox. Link to article: blog.apnic.net/2020/08/04/ch…

We're 10 months into the year, with all the additions and removal of dead domains and filters in #easylist the list size is 146k smaller. Getting leaner and meaner to ads. #adblocking #adblockerdevsummit #adblock

Some people moving away from Nano Defender on Chrome are being advised to install uBO Extra:
github.com/gorhill/uBO-Extra
Don't bother, you don't need it anymore, its main purpose was to defuse Instart Logic, but it appears IL's anti-user agent technology has gone away.
uBlock Origin retweeted
Reminder: Don't do this. Any reason you may want to come up with to rationalize using more than one similarly-purposed blockers is flawed.

23. uBlock Origin (Adblocker)
There are many ad blockers out there, but this is the MVP. Finally browse in peace.

Why uBlock Origin is our favorite ad blocker:
🐷 doesn't hog system resources
✋ doesn't block so much that it ruins a site's layout and functionality
📴 easy to disable on a case-by-case basis

80M people scammed by fake ad blockers in @googlechrome Web Store. The worst thing is, there's nothing new: malicious extensions either reappear or don't get removed at all. Why? We're trying to find answers: adguard.com/en/blog/fake-ad-…

It appears @CCleaner is disguising GPL-licence code (uBlock Origin, HTTPS Everywhere, maybe more) as if it was their own and using it in a closed-source, proprietary browser.

uBlock Origin et @AdblockPlus sont tous les deux mentionnés dans cet article, mais pas pour les mêmes raisons.

uBlock Origin and @AdblockPlus are both mentioned in this article, but not for the same reasons.
