[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 97327, post: 1014607"] Firefox had already told that they would allow a dual state (meaning continu MV2 support longer) and Edge already postponed it to 2024. Also most MV3 sdblockers are not permission less and they still inject javascript en change CSS (stylesheets) of websites, so the security goal is not achieved of MV3. Due to Chromium browsers killing service workers, those service workers need to br restarted (causing overhead), so I doubt the performance gosl will be schieved. Possibly Chrome will implement some of the MV3 change request suggested by extension developers and limit the capabilities of Extensions further, because none of the main goals are achieved. The last goal (at least what most MV3 dislikers say) to protect advertising income also failed, because adblocking is now also offered by DNS and VPN services and by competing browsers. Ironically the use of Adnlockers was declining since 2019, but the fuzz and attention caused by MV3 critics seems to have broken this downward trend Sometimes the advertising bullies (market leaders) are not succeeding in enforcing their will upon others. 😀 [/QUOTE]
