guess which all-powerful tech monopoly is breaking ublock origin (and umatrix, and likely many other similar add-ons, such as noscript) in their browser, which happens to be the most popular browser in the world?

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=896897&desc=2#c23

who could have foreseen this? who would ever think that an advertising company's web browser would end up breaking compatibility with an ad blocker? frankly i'm shocked

@lynnesbian This looks more like incompetence than malice to me. The (laudable, imho) goal of V3 extensions is to make it possible to build useful extensions without giving them total control over everything on every page. The V3 spec is in the feedback phase and is receiving useful feedback about it’s limitations. If no changes are made to the spec to address these concerns, that’s when I’ll start getting upset.
