"The research by Lukic and Papadopoulos, independently funded and unaffiliated with Google or vendors of privacy tools, found not only that MV3 and MV2 ad blocking and anti-tracking extensions are equally effective, but that MV3 improved anti-tracking by blocking 1.8 more tracking scripts per website on average than the MV2 extensions."

Turns out it's hard to prevent users from customizing how they interact with your website unless you go pure image rendering.

Is it possible that the breathless reporting of MV3 is gonna kill adblocking, was .. incorrect?

Not really. There's still stuff it can't do. Apparently YouTube ads are harder to block in chrome now. And really everything a MV3 blocker can do a MV2 can too. Additionally, someone can make a MV3 and reinstate the API that Google dropped from it.

Besides, I use ublock origin also for my own personal block list. I don't just block ads but also the sites' own big image highlight blocks, videos and other crap. So the sites I visit all pretty much look like the hacker news front page, just text and none of the marketing crap.

I don't think this can be done in MV3 blockers because they include the lists.
