Twitch Ads on Tor?
TTV.LOL is apparently the program that it uses to block ads. You can find their official site here and their source code is here.

Now getting "Commercial break in progress" on Twitch
I can't speak for everyone, but as of now (11-19-21) the TTV-LOL extension for Firefox is successfully blocking ads for me. If this changes, I'll endeavor to update/remove this post.

Anyone getting "commercial break in progress" screens in VLC while watching twitch as of today?
If you'd like a truly ad-free experience with no interruptions, it seems the only option is using a proxy to get a playlist from a country where Twitch doesn't serve ads. TTV.LOL can facilitate this. It's probably even possible for someone to modify Streamlink's Twitch plugin to make use of TTV.LOL's API to get an ad-free playlist in Streamlink, but I'm not a programmer, so I wouldn't know how to do that. I can't imagine it'd be very difficult however.

What Tyler1 asked the CEO of Twitch for in the executives meeting
try TTV-LOL or Purple-adblock || no compromise of low quality during ads

ELI5: Why does adblock work for YouTube but not for twitch? and what prevents YouTube from doing the same as twitch?

- Hey ESL, please put games on a platform where we can watch them if we don't wake up early enough to watch them live.

twitch ads
The server is currently down, this happened a few weeks ago too. https://github.com/TTV-LOL/extensions/issues/46
- What's the most current adblocker? Was using Twitch Adblock extension which worked fine, doesn't seem to be working as of recently.

Adblock not working on Twitch?
TTV LOL hasn't been updated for over a a year, so it seems unlikely that it got fixed somehow. https://github.com/TTV-LOL/extensions

Mozilla names new CEO as it pivots to data privacy
That isn't alarmist, but almost all privacy features in Brave are already in Firefox as well. Looking at this page:
- Chromium customizations: Not necessary in Firefox
- Client-side encryption for Brave Sync: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-firefox-sync-keeps-...
- DeAMPing: I think AMP has been dead for a few years now
- Limiting network server calls: I think this is a bit tangential to privacy, limiting calls is generally good but it doesn't mean you're transmitting less information. Brave's post comparing different browsers' first startup network calls is from 2019, not sure how Firefox performs today.
- Query parameter filtering: https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/toolkit/components/a...
- Better partitioning for better privacy: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Privacy/State_P...
- Referrer policy improvements: https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2021/03/22/firefox-87-trim...
- Fine grained / temporary permissions API: This is nice, I don't think Firefox has this.
- Social media blocking: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/enhanced-tracking-prote...
- Bounce tracking protections: https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2020/08/04/firefox-79-incl...
- Limiting the life of Javascript: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-rolls-o.... Not explicitly mentioned but I believe Firefox does have this 7 day limit as well, in addition to other protections.
- Private windows with Tor: Firefox doesn't have built-in Tor integration, but the actual Tor Browser is built from Firefox.
I think Firefox also has one or two features that Brave does not, like Multi-Account Containers, and some paid services like https://relay.firefox.com/.

Mozilla Monitor Plus: automatically remove your personal info from data brokers
> In a sense, it sounds like the advice of the services is less subscribing to them than trying not to have a few e-mails that map to your personal identity.
Firefox Relay is a great way to do that :) https://relay.firefox.com
Integrating that with Monitor is pretty high on at least my personal wish list.

Ask HN: How can we help Firefox not to dissapear?
> In what ways has mozilla meaningfully dared to try and expand their revenue streams?
I think that Mozilla VPN is pretty nice. It's based on Mullvad VPN, so they seem to know their audience (given that Mullvad has a pretty okay reputation among many tech savvy or privacy conscious folks, a lot of which probably use something like Firefox as well): https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/products/vpn/
I guess there's also Firefox Relay, for those who might benefit from something like that: https://relay.firefox.com/
Not many other products to give them money for come to mind, though.

Ask HN: Streaming Player Replacement for Roku?
I've been dragging around a similar concern. My solution might be to use Mozilla's Relay for the email and Privacy.com for the credit card.
https://relay.firefox.com/
https://privacy.com/
That won't stop the data collection but it should mitigate how useful it is. Maybe?
