  Very irritating. This has broken my extensions, and there is not an easy or medium difficulty mechanism to correct.

  I don’t know how to express my distaste for some of these v3 changes

  So weird to see someone praising Apple and knocking Google, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised when it comes to ads.

  That said, my ad-blocking experience on MacOS definitely got worse before improving recently, so even the movie Ghostery praised here disrupted things for me.
