    Google began phasing out Manifest V2 last year and plans to end support for extensions built on it by mid-2025. That change has real consequences: Chrome users are already losing access to uBlock Origin, one of the most popular ad blockers, because it relies on a Manifest V2 feature called blockingWebRequest.

    I’m actually a little bit surprised that Mozilla directly calling out Google by name and what they do, in an explicit manner.
