uBlock Origin

Description from extension meta

Finally, an efficient blocker. Easy on CPU and memory.

Image from store uBlock Origin

Description from store IMPORTANT: uBlock Origin is completely unrelated to the site "ublock.org". CHANGELOG: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases *** An efficient blocker: easy on memory and CPU footprint, and yet can load and enforce thousands more filters than other popular blockers out there. Illustrated overview of its efficiency: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/uBlock-vs.-ABP:-efficiency-compared Usage: The big power button in the popup is to permanently disable/enable uBlock Origin for the current web site. It applies to the current web site only, it is not a global power button. *** Flexible, it's more than an "ad blocker": it can also read and create filters from hosts files. Out of the box, these lists of filters are loaded and enforced: - EasyList - Peter Lowe’s Ad server list - EasyPrivacy - Malware domains More lists are available for you to select if you wish: - Fanboy’s Enhanced Tracking List - Dan Pollock’s hosts file - hpHosts’s Ad and tracking servers - MVPS HOSTS - Spam404 - And many others Of course, the more filters enabled, the higher the memory footprint. Yet, even after adding Fanboy's two extra lists, hpHosts’s Ad and tracking servers, uBlock Origin still has a lower memory footprint than other very popular blockers out there. Also, be aware that selecting some of these extra lists may lead to higher likelihood of web site breakage -- especially those lists which are normally used as hosts file. *** Free. Open source with public license (GPLv3) For users by users. If ever you really do want to contribute something, think about the people working hard to maintain the filter lists you are using, which were made available to use by all for free. *** Documentation: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock#ublock-origin Project change log: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases Contributors @ Github: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/graphs/contributors Contributors @ Crowdin: https://crowdin.net/project/ublock

(2020-02-18) Ivan Off: Почему он блочит не только рекламу, но и средства для сбора данных общих о юзерах, такие как Google Analytics и Open Web Analytics? Неужели я не имею права даже знать, сколько людей посещают мой сайт?
(2020-02-18) Gray io: Been using it for about 3-4 years. Its the best.
(2020-02-17) ANRK ALT: FANTASTIC extension. element picker mode is very underrated. i blocked a lot of clutter using it. unwanted sidebars, footers, advertisement panels, unwanted videos and sections, etc. you can literally reshape what some websites look like. highly recommended.

(2020-02-15) Muhammad Ferozdeen: It is user-friendly and does its job well. Ever since I installed this app, it has helped me blocked many unnecessary adds and at the same time it has allowed chrome to run faster
(2020-02-14) Strong Fatman: Ublock origin is the best adblocker out there, trust me. It doenst spy on you like Ghostery and it does block all ads unlike Adblock plus. Watch "The hated one" video about Ublock origin (advanced mode) on youtube.
(2020-02-14) Itigo Hosimiya: やっぱりublockが一番！　フィルター構成は内製フィルターそのままで他に AdGuard Base　Anti popads.net　豆腐フィルタ　EasyList without element hiding rules Hexxium Creations Threat List　Easy privacyだけ有効にすれば軽くて最強のBlockerに変身あとは邪魔な要素は上級者機能で個々にブロックしたほうが余計なフィルター追加せず住みます popin.ccとか激重いrakuten.ne.jpブロックすればめちゃくちゃサイト軽くなる！ ※AdGuardも良いんですがAdGuard使うならプレミアム版が良いので有料がokな人はAdGuardでもいいかな
(2020-02-14) Manuel Juan: aora es detectado por algunas pajinas sigue siendo detectado incluso en esta ultima actualizacion

(2020-02-14) Ultimate Expander: It just works. Easy to toggle, doesn't mess with anything, and generally just makes life better.
(2020-02-14) Beverly Eborn: uBlock is extremely effective. It blocks all ads before YouTube videos, during Spotify jam sessions, and on those sites that are normally covered in pop-ups. It has not slowed my computer or browsing experience at all, and I am very satisfied with its performance.
(2020-02-14) 鄭安佑: good

"uBlock Origin" extension is injecting adware into every site that user is visiting and such a behavior is described as "Lnkr Adware" - pushing data to datapro.website/metric. Mitigated if user does have another ad-blocker installed, like "Adblock Plus" or "NoScript", that blocks such requests.

I uninstalled and reinstalled ublock origin to no avail, but youtube fails to initially load a video because of the ads in the video, after several seconds to several minutes the video will continue. I'm not dropping packets, nor losing connection. Removing ublock solves this issue.

(2020-01-21, v:1.24.2) EJ Lazaga: Preventing all pages from loading
Hi, Google Chrome stopped loading all my pages today - not even a loading bar. After some trouble shooting, I narrowed it down to uBlock Origin. Once I disable it, everything works as normal. This is an odd issue because this only started today. I have been using uBlock for many years. Is there a fix?

(2020-01-16, v:1.24.2) John Gillis: False Positive - Webconnex Products
Hello Ublock team, I hope all is well. I was writing to you to see if we might get some help with what we consider to be a false positive with your users who actively use this extension. We have 4 online products, and we've gotten a few people who have reached out to us saying they can't sign up on our sites for our products. They both use ublock, and didn't realize our JS popup was being block by the extension. We were hoping in the effort of serving both of our customers if we might have an exemption on our sites so people who use you, and us can sign up for our service again. If you click 'Get Started' on any of our four product sites, it should launch the JS pop up to fill out info, but uBlock is stopping it. I've tested a few other large pop up blockers, and they do not stop this, and as far as I can tell ublock is the only one we've heard about from our customers. We hope you can help us with this exception, and thank you for your time, feel free to click 'Get Started' on any of these with/without ublock enabled and you can see what I mean. https://www.ticketspice.com/ https://www.regfox.com/ https://www.redpodium.com/ https://www.givingfuel.com/ Thank you kindly. -John G Webconnex, LLC
