It's not bad, just mostly redundant these days, as the heuristic features are no longer enabled, and the defaults ublock lists will cover a lot of the same.

It's DeArrow

AFAIK every function of NoScript exists in uBlock Origin. So just get uBO and cut the redundancy. The less vectors the better

Adnausem is built on top of ublock origin and will silently "click" on the ads behind the scenes to mess up your advertising profile and cost the advertisers money.

Tried it a couple of months ago. Didn't nearly work as well as uBlock Origin, seemed buggy as hell.

uBlock Origin can just hide cookie pop ups if you enable said filter, and AdNauseam still loads the ad so you still have slower page loading speed and increased network traffic.

Oooo. Now that's something to try.

Truly! I have a streaming app for local TV and I recommended it to a friend and he said  "no way man! Way too many ads in it!" That’s when I realized how awesome Pi-Hole is 🤣

Not OP, but what puts me off is that it calls itself badger, but really it's just a software that has nothing in common with those glorious animals. Did you know that badgers' keen sense of smell is about 800 times sharper than our own?

I think UBO makes it redundant.

Privacy Badger has historically allowed tracking until it successfully identifies a domain as a likely tracker. Like the air bags going off after you've already wrapped your car around a telephone pole. But it's now been changed and is now closer to a list-based tracker blocker (enumerate badness):

Privacy Badger no longer learns from your browsing by default, as “local learning” may make you more identifiable to websites.

They've since corrected one of the core issues with PB by doing so, but it still it is very weak. To see why, please glance through The Six Dumbest Ideas in Computer Security.

uBlock Origin in advanced mode, with default-deny rules (only allow assets by exception) is going to be much stronger at blocking crap.

Personally, I use uMatrix with pretty much all asset classes blocked by default. I never see popups. I never see banners begging "please allow our cookies, pleeeeaaase!".

What an awful mischaracterisation. While the dislike feature may appeal to misanthropes, it also appeals to the much larger pool of people that are intelligent enough/respectful of their own time to understand the value of the feature in helping to avoid poor quality and misleading content.

It really bears out in the results. For those who recall what old ratios looked like, for sufficiently popular videos, they still hold true with this plugin.

It's better than nothing. Also I'd probably weigh the opinion of people who have the extension higher than of those who don't.

It's honestly relatively representative afaik

Even though it, SponsorBlock etc. could just be neglected by using piped or just federated alternatives.
