According to recent user reports, uBlock Origin is quickly disappearing from the Chrome Web Store. The official page for the ad-blocking extension now states that it is unavailable because it doesn’t comply with Chrome’s “best practices” for add-ons. However, we can confirm that the page is still accessible from our EU Windows client.

    Chrome has ad blocking technology?

    I thought it was the opposite.

      I think it does, but only blocks competing advertisers

      (Note: I actually have no clue if they do and I’m talking out my ass; that said, I would absolutely not be surprised one bit if they did exactly that)
