Wow, utterly shocked that a company with a shit CEO that takes most of its money from Google would have these viewpoints.

I'm sure it is completely coincidental that ublock is about to die as well.

I think the bigger issue is them potentially losing their Google income.

They've failed to diversify their income with a bunch of failed subscription services, Google is in hot waters because of anti-competitive behaviour; they're going to need something.

Which isn't to say I like it. But "this is happening because they take Google money" is parroted beneath every slightly negative thing Mozilla does.

wtf are you talking about?

Not in Firefox specifically, but many chromium based browsers are about to lose access to the original ublock. I've been planning on switching to Firefox when this goes through for a while now.

the original ublock.

You mean the original uBlock Origin. The original uBlock has been gone for a long time.

Sorry, you are correct - I meant uBlock Origin
