    Can you imagine the amount of corruptive influences and persuasions he is resisting?

      Insightful point. And it does remind me of the corporate purchase of the Don’t care about cookies extension for Firefox (And the Simple Mobile Tools for Android). Luckily it was forked. https://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Still-Dont-Care-About-Cookies Open source FTW!

        Simple Mobile Tools was forked into “Fossify *” for anyone interested.

    It’s kinda sad that without Mozilla, Raymond, the NoScript guys and TOR we would lose control over the internet pretty much immediately

    and when asked about donations, he instead asks to donate to those who maintain the lists.

        Still big kudos to Raymond for providing the foundations to make it all work too.

          Aren’t most lists available on other browsers and ad blockers? Unless Raymond created the format

            The format currently used in adblocker predates uBO by almost a decade so no, but still, maintaining this add-on with how fast and often web browser changes, and keeping it performant must be quite the task.

    Seriously. Says a lot about the modern internet, though. Both good and bad.
