Google postpones MV2 shutoff in Chrome stable to June 2023
Don’t mistake this for victory. Google’s standard playbook when forcing things people don’t like is to spread the action out over a longer timeframe, exhausting the media and keeping the final blow mostly out of the news, and exhausting our individual outrage and will to keep fighting. It works every time, and it’ll work again if we become complacent again. Until and unless Google meaningfully commits to <i>never</i> neuter ad blockers, it’s still critical and urgent that we switch to Firefox.
