    …Oh, no! Anyway. Just giving people one more reason to finally make the switch to Firefox or something different.

    Google Chrome warns about disabling uBlock Origin. I warn Google Chrome that they’re being a little bitch & they’re going to lose users.

      Oh no, they are about to lose the $0 that uBlock origin users bring!

      They know they will lose users and they don’t care. They will make much more per user selling ads than before. Google is an ad company. They’re not a browser company, or a mobile OS company, or an office suite company. It’s all about ads.

        Not necessarily. They still get money from selling user data. So they likely still care about losing users who use adblocking to at least some degree.
