Description from store
uBO Lite (uBOL) is an efficient MV3-based content blocker.
The default ruleset corresponds to uBlock Origin's default filterset:
- uBlock Origin's built-in filter lists
- EasyList
- EasyPrivacy
- Peter Lowe’s Ad and tracking server list
You can enable more rulesets by visiting the options page -- click the _Cogs_ icon in the popup panel.
uBOL is entirely declarative, meaning there is no need for a permanent uBOL process for the filtering to occur, and CSS/JS injection-based content filtering is performed reliably by the browser itself rather than by the extension. This means that uBOL itself does not consume CPU/memory resources while content blocking is ongoing -- uBOL's service worker process is required _only_ when you interact with the popup panel or the option pages.

- (2025-07-16) Dylan Avet: Screw you google. Never forget they dropped "Don't be evil" from their motto. You don't have the right to shove ads down our throats. uBlock Origin you are the best as always, download this extension now!
- (2025-07-16) Dominik Opolski: Manifest V3 is the biggest annoyence google come up with
- (2025-07-16) Jett M: RIP Ublock Origin. This is the last straw, I'm switching to Firefox over this MV3 nonsense but came to install this extension as an act of defiance.
- (2025-07-16) Brandon Wilton: nice try google
- (2025-07-15) Heros “Heros5k” Hajetschek: Not really useful, breaks sites.
- (2025-07-15) Jeremy L: thank you for once again protecting me from the tyranny of the modern internet. Also, so much better than other adblockers which ironically come with ads of their own. Ublock is like a little time machine back to the old internet- before everything good was ruined by enshittifcation. Wish I could give 10 stars
- (2025-07-15) T.J.: Works just like the old version. We win again.
- (2025-07-15) Ashbest: Thanks boss
- (2025-07-15) NinetailsGX: Does what it says never doubt uBlock. Sadly, the original uBlock Origin got taken down from the Chrome Web Store, but this one's just as solid.
- (2025-07-15) Daniel: A free adblocker...need I say more? MV3 is a terrible update...only thing keeping users on Google are adblockers!
- (2025-07-15) Boris: As many other users stated, this extension is a necessary evil as Google is blocking the original uBlock one to protect its ads market share, under the blanket of "users online safety". We all know the only thing they care to save is their ads revenues (remember them leaking users data in incognito mode and stopped only because of the ongoing class-action?) I'm installing it on my imposed chrome work web-browser but have migrated to Firefox for all my personal deveices (phone, tablet, PC...). Google can shove its Manifest v3 up where the sun never shines. Big up to the uBlock Origin Lite developpers though!
- (2025-07-15) Aakash: don't be sad that it ended , be happy that it happened
- (2025-07-15) ilvhimestyle: nice
- (2025-07-15) Lance McGill: Make sure to go into settings and change the filtering mode to 'optimal' for YouTube.
- (2025-07-15) darknx: rip ublock origin
- (2025-07-15) Travis Stone: I love how it allows me to customize the blocked area
- (2025-07-14) Dubble D: Thank God uBlock Origin Lite is still available! RIP Original uBlock Origin
- (2025-07-14) TJ S: We all knew the day would come eventually.
- (2025-07-14) Triskut: This is the bestest one, thank you so much. Google is promoting the other adblocker fyi because they got some skin in that game. Thanks so much uBlock Origin Devs <3
- (2025-07-14) James: Dear Google, You suck. The internet is UNUSABLE WITHOUT AN ADBLOCKER
- (2025-07-14) Anna: Disabling uBlock Origin is such a dirty move by google. Unfortunately I have to use Chrome for my job so thank you for making this lite version. For my other devices I now use Firefox or Librewolf browser -- I highly recommend those. To those who remember Chrome being superior to FF in the past, FF has come a long way and transitioning was seamless.
- (2025-07-14) Kevin: Great replacement since the original no longer is supported
- (2025-07-14) Maarten Van Geel: Thank god, a replacement for the original! Keep up the good work!
- (2025-07-14) Robbie Ward: Switched from uBlock to the Lite version because (Google....) and the Lite version works perfectly! Pretty much the exact same, you just don't get custom filters which I didn't use much of anyway.
- (2025-07-14) Andrew miller: Check out "A Chrome Web Store user" guide here, not sure how long it'll work but it keeps the lights on for now. I will be moving to firefox very soon, didn't feel like moving but lmao google is allergic to my money apparently. Its the only way i'd use their godawful service. here before the google monopoly bans opera and firefox to lol
- (2025-07-14) Richard Orrala: Beware, the update of Google Chrome that came out today removes uBlock Origin for those who still have it and use it.
- (2025-07-14) Bob: no way google removed ublock origin
- (2025-07-14) Dongulous Supremous: I make it a point to try not to buy or watch anything that's constantly being advertised to me, so thanks for letting me block those pesky videos and pop-ups I ignore regardless. I'd rather just browse and watch things at my leisure rather than be bombarded by another company holding their hand out and begging for another couple of dollars. Maybe if they wanted some extra cash they wouldn't be spending so much on advertisements, the vast majority of people already know about them, what's the point of bothering people for? Edit: Doesn't block youtube ads, nevermind I'm going to Mozilla and turning on bing for my search engine, google can go rot in a corner.
- (2025-07-14) Alexandros Augustus: “I fight for the Users.” – Tron That’s exactly what uBlock Origin does — silently, efficiently, without compromise. In a web filled with trackers and popups, it’s the Program that defends your freedom “The thing about perfection is that it’s unknowable… but it’s still the goal.” – Kevin Flynn uBlock Origin gets damn close. Lightweight. Open-source. No fluff. Just pure protection — the way the digital world should be.
- (2025-07-13) lawnmower lord: actually despise google. greedy gremlins
- (2025-07-13) Firecracker: I've used the original uBlock Origin for years and found it unmatched in blocking all kinds of ads and trackers. With Chrome’s new extension rules, I appreciate that uBlock Origin Lite offers a streamlined, effective solution that works well with Manifest V3. It blocks most ads and keeps browsing fast and smooth. While it doesn’t have all the advanced features of the classic version, it’s easy to use and does a great job on most sites. If you want a simple, reliable ad blocker that respects your privacy and doesn’t slow down your browser, uBlock Origin Lite is a top choice. Thanks to the developer for adapting to Chrome’s new requirements and keeping ad blocking strong!
- (2025-07-13) Sandy Kaur: Excellent at blocking the worst of the worst in life - Ads.
- (2025-07-13) Redstone Miner: rest in peace ublock origin, long life its son
- (2025-07-13) Grant Haas: Works great with MB from 2015. It even sped up my older Macbook probably because some of the filters were unnecessary or unneeded.
- (2025-07-13) Shlok Studios (Shlok Sawardekar): PEAK
- (2025-07-13) EDCBB3: GOAT's, been using firefox and chrome at the same time so this is a god send
- (2025-07-13) Jaleh Azarpaad: Not sure when Lite was made, but I admire their determination to stay on chrome despite uBlock Origin no longer being available. Thank you.
- (2025-07-13) Anabel: At this point Ublock should make its own browser. Since Google "doesn't follow the best browser practices."
- (2025-07-12) Sean Nesbitt: All credit to the uBlock team for fighting the good fight, but I'd encourage everyone that can to switch to Firefox. I'm very much a creature of habit and hate change but the switch was pretty seamless, you can even get a Chrome skin to ease the transition feel. Google are going to keep abusing their monopolies and our best option is to walk away now.
- (2025-07-12) Eric Ketzer: Actually, it works. Just put the filter to "complete" and add filters in the "filter lists".
- (2025-07-12) JestfulCompany: Better than no uBlock Origin on Chrome... Next time yall get a new device be sure to install something like Firefox instead of Chrome. I'm too lazy to switch now on my main PC but I 100% will on every other device I own
- (2025-07-12) Riaz Ali: btw, Slimjet is a Chromium-based web browser where you can still use Ublock Origin and any other manifest v2 addon, many of which aren't ever being updated to v3 and that I couldn't dream of using the web without. There are free online web archives of addons in case you deleted them.
- (2025-07-12) Oskar Zone: goat
- (2025-07-12) Kristopher Wilson: Using this as an alternative since the original uBlock Origin is banned, screw you Google.
- (2025-07-12) vempy !!: really good but it shows the ads on the homepage can yall fix that!
- (2025-07-12) Chris Kuchiki: Good job google, now most people won't use chrome.
- (2025-07-12) BravoFoxtrot LLC: Anyone looking Both Brave and Librewolf still use Ublock Origin and are far superior to Chrome in privacy anyway. Librewolf Portable is extremely tiny and lite on resources, just an FYI. The Entire world should uninstall Chrome out of spite!
- (2025-07-12) Gabriel A: F YOU GOOGLE WE HATE YOU
- (2025-07-12) tarun yadav: This works just fine for the time being.
- (2025-07-12) Sunny: lmao go f yourself google.
