  • This is not necessarily true, just because software is open source doesn't mean someone else can't use it to do something sneaky or for monetary gain. See https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/uBlock-Origin-is-completely-unrelated-to-the-web-site-ublock.org for a relevant example.

  • European users who rely on "annoyance" lists to hide cookie overlays might have a better experience with the AdGuard extension, since many websites from countries like Germany show especially invasive overlays that can only be hidden by setting a cookie before the page is even loaded. AdGuard can do this, but uBlock Origin is against adding this feature.
