Full article: Firefox browser has started shipping Brave’s adblock-rust engine
After seeing a lot of backlash over Waterfox adding Brave’s adblock engine:
It looks like Waterfox is piggy-backing off of Firefox’s implementation (great!).
And it’s been there for a little while.
Mozilla bundled adblock-rust (Brave’s Rust-based adblock engine, the same one my team works on) into Firefox. Pretty exciting to see them finally start taking ad & tracker blocking seriously; I didn’t think I’d see this day. It landed in Firefox 149 via via Bugzilla Bug 2013888.
Agreed, uBo is the superior solution since it is not only an ad blocker. It is so much more.
