Re: [Bug-gnuzilla] Build Spyblock from uBlock Origin

[mdn]

It's under GPLv3 if there is a problem with it can be forked

And what the problem ?
Maybe because it's actually a better alternative to any other solution.
I participate myself to installing the addon on browsers.

You aren't making any sense do you read or understand what you right ?

"ho my ! the internet is heavily used by people so I wont use it"
This is what I interpret from you.

It's free software fork it if you are not happy or compile it without
the addons.

>spyblock is great, does one job, and does it good.
no it cannot block some content because adblock plus is designed to be a
addlbock and not more that.

Listen, if it becomes like adblock plus, someone else will make another
free software, just like when adblock edge was a thing, then µblock
screwed up and µblock origin who will carry the torch etc...
It's an endless cycle.

But please in the future make constructed posts this is not a chan board
try to not shitpost.
