Stops one from being logged in on NYTimes.com even if you turn off the tracker/ad blocking toggle for the site. Not great so far.

Can't disable for certain sites. No functioning blocking element feature like Adguard MV3 Beta. Some sites detect this adblock need filter for that. No details on items blocked. Needs work. So far, Adguard MV3 and Ghostery MV3 are better than this.

This is my new favorite mv3 extension. It blocks ads/trackers, malware & everything else dangerous on the web. Though granted I am using a ChromeOS but eh it's better to be safe then sorry in my opinion. Also it has settings I wasn't expecting to find in a mv3 extension & not to mention it's lightweight & fast. So will probably be using this from now on. Not to mention I feel more protected & safer as well then the other mv3 extensions out there. Anyway I don't work for Malwarebytes or anyt... Show more
