Google push out updates at regular intervals that detect the adblocker

why didn't you notice before? ublock origin has a special quick fixes list which updates very frequently, without Google's involvement

but with manifest v3: Google are now in charge and have to approve all "definition" updates

which they will only do once they've got a new detection method ready

and this is the entire point of manifest v3

No, they don't. MV3 extensions are allowed to fetch remote data which definition updates would be.


Just saying, I've been using Lite for months. It's been fine.


they'd have to be really, really stupid to start doing it before their main countermeasure has been removed
