Related issue: https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/3206 The main purpose is to bypass URLs designed to track whether a user visited a specific URL, typically used in click-tracking links. The `urlskip=` option ... - ... is valid only when used in a trusted filter list - ... is enforced only on top documents - ... is enforced on both blocked and non-blocked documents - ... is a modifier, i.e. it cannot be used along with other modifier options in a single filter The syntax is `urlskip=[steps]`, where steps is a space-separated list of extraction directives detailing what action to perform on the current URL. The only supported directive in this first commit is `?name`, which purpose is to extract the value of a named URL parameter and use the result as the new URL. Example: ||example.com/path/to/tracker$urlskip=?url The above filter will cause navigation to https://example.com/path/to/tracker?url=https://example.org/ to automatically bypass navigation to `example.com` and navigate directly to https://example.org/ It is possible to recursively extract URL parameters by using more than one directive, example: ||example.com/path/to/tracker$urlskip=?url ?to More extraction capabilities may be added in the future. |

uBlock Origin (uBO)
BEWARE! uBO is (and has always been) COMPLETELY UNRELATED to the website ublock.org
.
IMPORTANT: About Google Chrome's "This extension may soon no longer be supported"
uBlock Origin (uBO) is a CPU and memory-efficient wide-spectrum content blocker for Chromium and Firefox. It blocks ads, trackers, coin miners, popups, annoying anti-blockers, malware sites, etc., by default using EasyList, EasyPrivacy, Peter Lowe's Blocklist, Online Malicious URL Blocklist, and uBO filter lists. There are many other lists available to block even more. Hosts files are also supported. uBO uses the EasyList filter syntax and extends the syntax to work with custom rules and filters.
You may easily unselect any preselected filter lists if you think uBO blocks too much. For reference, Adblock Plus installs with only EasyList, ABP filters, and Acceptable Ads enabled by default.
It is important to note that using a blocker is NOT theft. Do not fall for this creepy idea. The ultimate logical consequence of blocking = theft
is the criminalization of the inalienable right to privacy.
Ads, "unintrusive" or not, are just the visible portion of the privacy-invading means entering your browser when you visit most sites. uBO's primary goal is to help users neutralize these privacy-invading methods in a way that welcomes those users who do not wish to use more technical means.

Chromium
Microsoft Edge Add-ons (Published by: Nicole Rolls)
uBO should be compatible with any Chromium-based browser.
All Programs
Do NOT use uBO with any other content blocker. uBO performs as well as or better than most popular blockers. Other blockers can prevent uBO's privacy or anti-blocker-defusing features from working correctly.
