Which is why I'd leave uBlock whitelisted. I never said I want to block all extensions!

uBlock effectively does this for advertising domains. Why is that any different?
- jeroenhd 3y agoThe tricky thing is what extensions should be whitelisted and what extensions shouldn't. uBlock is easy, but what about Consent-O-Matic? What about GreaseMonkey and friends? What about Stylus? Where do you draw the line? uBlock was just an example, of course. There are other addons that do more complex auto detection.
- drdaeman 3y agoIn my experience, banking websites are notoriously ass-backwards and need more hacks and patches than many other websites. I’ve specifically used Greasemonkey to fix bank breaking pasting into fields and blocking password managers by splitting login form into deliberately broken pieces.
