I used vanilla Chrome with “Ublock lite” in someone else’s computer for a bit, and was shocked by how many ads got through, not to speak of annoyances and what I suspect was a malware link. We also got a related ad on TV soon after browsing for something.
I think Google’s having their cake and eating it. It blocks enough for users to feel like they’re getting Adblock, yet it’s not much skin off Google’s back.
Is it?

Was the slider turned up all the way?
I dunno. Whatever the default was, so perhaps not?
But whatever Ublock Lite’s default is is probably what 99% of folks are using.
