    Run a pihole or similar

    Your web browser is just one piece of software on your network capable of displaying ads and collecting data

      Network-level adblock cannot replace browser-level adblock and vice versa

      I mean it’s just a browser. Bit of fiddling with the saved password and your go to go again to never look back. If they value their users they will improve again like Firefox did in the background over years.

      I only hope a good search engine will appear again. I don’t like the alternatives.

    Since January 2018, 42% of malicious extensions use the Web Request API.

    That’s like making knifes illegal in general because they have been used in a certain amount of murder cases.
