The link goes to the normal uBlock Origin landing page, which contains no suggestion that anything has been disabled... It contains, among other things, some details about how some functionality is reduced in some browsers due to Manifest V3, is that what the title is getting at? Regardless, "uBlock Origin has been disabled" seems like a falsehood, unless there's something I'm missing?
Not the page title, works fine in some browsers.<p>Related:<p><i>Chrome Canary just killed uBlock Origin and other Manifest V2 extensions</i> (119 points, 4 months ago, 62 comments) <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41757178">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41757178</a><p><i>About Google Chrome's "This extension may soon no longer be supported"</i> (182 points, 6 months ago, 45 comments) <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41140185">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41140185</a><p><i>In June 2024, ad blockers such as uBlock Origin will be disabled in Chrome 127</i> (143 points, 1 year ago, 52 comments) <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38361758">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38361758</a>

The linked page doesn't say anything about this, but it's true. I just restarted Chrome and it turned off uBlock Origin. However, it was easy to ignore the warning and turn it back on.
Indeed... Today, Chrome simply removed uBlock Origin (and Redirector, which I use regularly in development).
That's the last straw... Besides, I don't see how I can surf the web these days without uBlock Origin.
I haven't been following this multi-year saga closely because my test is simple: as soon as I see an unwanted ad in Chrome, I'm out. Haven't gotten there yet.
