    @HubertManne @leo @amanneedsamaid OK then, but saying that, rather than just saying don’t use privacy badger would have made a lot of difference. I use UBlock origin, privacy pass for hcaptcha stuff, privacy badger, jshelter from time to time, plus I also use a vpn when I have to, because honestly I don’t really like using them, their apps feel clunky, etc. So yeah, it’s absolutely fine to have different solutions to the same problem installed, that incourages healthy competition

      About having multiple solutions installed to same problem being “absolutely fine”, yeah no. (albeit 5 year old tweet, but I would assume it holds true).

      Also, adblock extensions are not an industry, and given the fact they’re open sourced, there is no real benefit to “encouraging competition” for such a simple tool.
