uBlock Origin stopped working – how to block ads in Chrome in 2025 – UNIAN
Some of your favorite extensions, including uBlock Origin, may soon no longer be supported.
In October, Google Chrome began a gradual transition to the new Manifest v3 extension platform. There's a lot of technical detail here, but suffice it to say that due to the transition to the new platform, many extensions, including ad blockers, have stopped working or will soon stop working.
Among these extensions was uBlock Origin with an audience of over 30 million. Many have already lost access to the blocker; those who are “lucky” continue to see a warning about its imminent shutdown. The transition to Manifest V3 is expected to be fully completed by June 2025, and for many users this may be an unpleasant surprise.
