"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.

If I were Google, I'd pay someone to release this "research". Oh geez, you got us power users. You really stuck it to us.
