▲ 1065 ▼ Google Chrome’s plan to limit ad blocking extensions kicks off next week (arstechnica.com) submitted 2 years ago by AnActOfCreation@programming.dev to c/technology@lemmy.world 357 comments fedilink hide all child comments Reminder to switch browsers if you haven't already! Google Chrome is starting to phase out older, more capable ad blocking extensions in favor of the more limited Manifest V3 system. The Manifest V3 system has been criticized by groups like the Electronic Frontier Foundation for restricting the capabilities of web extensions. Google has made concessions to Manifest V3, but limitations on content filtering remain a source of skepticism and concern.

But the flip side is that the website developer can make a website that won't function if it can't load the ads being served. And most users are gonna want a functional website. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago Somebody's going to need to write a web site with a very, very compelling function to make me give enough of a shit to not just click away if it is deliberately coded to not work with Firefox/adblockers.

If I "opt in" it falls back to non doh immediately because using doh on my network is not up to Chrome. use-application-dns.net + nxdomain for any known doh provider I don't use pihole but doh blocking works great on my network. It should work on a pihole tho it's pretty basic stuff. If you can't resolve the domain you can't validate the TLS certificate. permalink fedilink source parent
