What would we do without ublock origin

[–] [email protected] 23 points 4 months ago

Use vblock ingress!

You would use noBlock origin instead

In the 1999s-2000s we used WebWasher. It was basically a proxy server which you ran locally on your computer and it had all the filters. You just set up your browser's network connection to point to WebWasher and it acted as the gateway to the Internet.

If browsers somehow decided to kill all their plugin support, you could still use that to filter your content.
