Might be better that way. AdBlockers are fast-moving, with a dedicated, diligent working community. Outside the browser, they probably can work better.
- fabrice_d 2y agoNot just that, but why would Mozilla pick the winner here? Everyone complains about the side effects of default search engines, let's not do it again with ad-blockers! And anyway, their Google contract certainly prevents them from doing shipping ad-blocking by default.
