If it's the same API as iOS' NetworlExtension, then I don't see why uBlock couldn't happen. uBlock doesn't "phone home" for each request/site, does it?

- jon-wood 6y agoIt doesn't phone home, but it does depend on access to the DOM for at least some of its functionality like being able to block particular elements in a page based on pattern matching. If the new API allows more or less equivalent functionality without having to give an extension access to every page I open I'm all for it though.
- the_gipsy 6y agoAccessing and modifying the DOM based on some rules, in a sandbox without leaking data, seems technically feasible.
