GOOGLE IS PLANNING TO CRIPPLE AD-BLOCKERS ON CHROME

Google engineers are preparing a third version of the manifest, which defines the possibilities and limitations for extensions.

Google engineers want to restrict the work of the webRequest API, which could adversely affect the operation of content blockers and other extensions. These changes will increase safety and productivity.

According to Google developers, this affects the page loading speed too much, so in the future, the webRequest API will only be allowed to watch and read requests, but not interfere.
