i know this is extremely unlikely to happen, but imagine if both mozilla and google decides to remove adblock extensions in every way, if that happens, would you still pirate?

Some people might say about *arr aplications, but imo that wouldnt work, simply because without adblocks, the trackers would do something to stop it.

Not much of a pirate, but I do like blocking ads. In that situation, here are some browsers I believe would still have ad blocking capabilities.

Firefox-based browsers:

  • Librewolf (privacy-focused; comes with uBlock Origin)

  • Tor (don't know much about it, but it probably would have ad blocking still)

Chromium-based:

  • Vivaldi (it appears they have built-in ad blocking; closed source though)

  • Bromite (mobile; not sure if still continued)
