I see a lot of people plugging uBlock Origin here. I am curious, has anyone gone through their code to make sure they are on the up and up. Look, I'm not saying that they are as scummy as ABP, all I am asking is if anyone knows, to some degree of sureness, that they are not also doing these scummy things too. The pressure on uBO must be pretty high.
- bricestacey 10y agouBlock Origin is written by gorhill, a user of much respect. I can't say I've heard of anyone auditing its source code, but you may find reading his comments interesting to make a better guess as to its legitimacy https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=gorhill https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=gorhill He seems pretty cool to me. And you can peruse the issues in the repo https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock I'm pretty sure you can't delete issues, so if someone found something and reported it you should be able to find it.
