    Wasn’t able to find an answer to my main question in the article: will this kill uBlock Origin’s ability to block YouTube ads?

      Wether it is or not, the sheer fact that they’re pulling those moves made me move away from Chrome.

      uBlock Origin has already been letting some Youtube ads through on my Chromebook in the last few days. (Still been working perfectly on Firefox on my desktop, though.)

      It’s getting real close to time to finally bite the bullet and nuke ChromeOS in favor of normal Linux.
