The extension uses WebGPU + WebGL when available.
I've disabled those features.
I won't be testing it.
If others test it, I'd be happy to read about their results.

They use not relying on filter lists and reacting interactively per website using AI as a selling point.

I tested it briefly. First, it showed that it blocked a lot but I found little that was actually blocked. Fingerprint blocker doesn't work. And you have to download a 2.GB ai file to get it to uses any ai
