The point is that it supports everything that currently matters in any substantial way.

Lots of people have been pointing out that ad companies will figure ways out around it. But they really haven't been.

MV3 and UBOL have been in wide usage for about a year and a half now. And nothing has been changing. Adblocking continues to be great.

The fact of the matter is, the ad block lists were getting so large and the JavaScript functionality was slow and it was significantly impacting page load times. UBOL uses vastly more efficient compiled code that is part of the browser and is just a far better ad blocking experience altogether.

But I guess that just doesn't fit the narrative that people want to believe, where MV3 was part of a big evil plan.
