A unknown addon in firefox addon store with 4.5+ rating.

(From, most of the comments it’s seems like this addon is suspicious and don’t have enough proof or evidence to trust it with our data. So please everyone avoid using this addon. A better one is “UBLOCK ORIGIN”).

        @Alb087 i don’t see it having more users, or ratings? ublock origin has 7m users, this has 1m. Plus, the websites to this ad blocker you mention seem like commercial. non-open-source software, I wouldn’t doubt that this is spyware.

        Okay you asked the question, got the answer, and are clearly not listening to what people are saying and still trying to get people to agree this one is just as good…

        Scrap this shitty freemium copycat add on and just use ublock origin.

        It seriously is not that complicated.
