AdGuard publishes the first ad blocker built on Manifest V3
> <i>By releasing an extension built with Manifest V3 today — first among developers of ad blockers – we can say that we've met the challenge that Google posed to us.</i><p>They shouldn't do this IMHO.<p>Manifest V3 is a horrible attempt to kill adblocking (under the banner of "security", as always). But, the web is completely unusable without adblocking.<p>If there are no more (effective) adblockers for Chrome, users will frantically begin to search for an alternative; there are many: Firefox and Brave to mention just two.<p>Giving a boost to alternative browsers can only be a good thing; and it may also, eventually, make Google rethink this policy.
