Google Chrome will limit ad blockers starting June 2024 - SLRPNK

The “Manifest V3” rollout is back after letting tensions cool for a year.

Google’s sales pitch for Manifest V3 is that, by limiting extensions, the browser can be lighter on resources, and Google can protect your privacy from extension developers.

Emphases mine. Funny, I use extensions to protect my privacy from Google.

The second being Safari, right?

Right?

…right…

Why would it be? Maybe if you looked at market share just for mobile devices. But on desktop it’s limited to just macOS.

I’m mostly joking.

Mostly.
