Just don't use Chrome, switch to Firefox and use the original µBlock origin.
Firefox saved the Internet from monopolization by Microsoft once, hopefully it can do it again against Google.
But it requires that people stop using Chrome.

This is what finally moved me over to Firefox and I’ve been very happy with it.

...........in like 2005.......right? RIGHT????

Unless you're younger. I often forget I'm old. I still feel young. I feel like if a young person were just always in physical pain. Especially standing up.

alternate headline: "UBlock Origin Lite - Crippled adblocker for a google-dominated internet."

do what u/Buffalox said, stop using chrome and chromium-based browsers.

Good if it's the only option (ie: corporate browser and can't use anything else). I personally won't settle for less and Firefox is my primary browser.

Test is pointless, since the test measurement is in "how it feels".
