Google ramps up its campaign against ad blockers on Chrome.
  • Google is transitioning Chrome’s extension support from the Manifest V2 framework to the V3.
  • This means users won’t be able to use uBlock Origin to block ads on Google Chrome.
  • However, there’s a new iteration of the app — uBlock Origin Lite, which is Manifest V3 compliant but doesn’t boast the original version’s comprehensive ad-blocking features.

    That doesn’t really answer my question. How does one get ublock origin on mobile?

      Same as on desktop. You go to the Mozilla extension site or the author’s site and click add.

        And to add to that, set all your programs and links to open in Firefox by default, instead of the YouTube app, etc. then you’re blocking ads just like a desktop on every site you visit.

      There’s an extensions menu in the firefox app, uBlock is listed as one of the recommend ones, all you have to do is click the plus sign to add it.
