    This is correct, and uBlock Origin has already received an update that works around the popup.

    This is a game of cat and mouse that Google simply can’t win. I’m fairly certain they’ll add native code in Chrome for detecting ad blockers within the next 12 months.

    I can also see a world in which they eventually block third party browsers from accessing it too. Even then there will still always be ways of working around it like revanced, custom chromium builds and so on.

      Just a new header for whether the site allows extensions that are not Google Web Protect certified.
