This commit brings the following changes to the logger: All logging output generated by injected scriptlets are now sent to the logger, the developer console will no longer be used to log scriptlet logging information. When the logger is not opened, the scriplets will not output any logging information. The goal with this new approach is to allow filter authors to more easily assess the working of scriptlets without having to go through scriptlet parameters to enable logging. Consequently all the previous ways to tell scriptlets to log information are now obsolete: if the logger is opened, the scriptlets will log information to the logger. Another benefit of this approach is that the dev tools do not need to be open to obtain scriptlets logging information. Accordingly, new filter expressions have been added to the logger: "info" and "error". Selecting the "scriptlet" expression will also keep the logging information from scriptlets. A new button has been added to the logger (not yet i18n-ed): a "volume" icon, which allows to enable verbose mode. When verbose mode is enabled, the scriptlets may choose to output more information regarding their inner working. The entries in the logger will automatically expand on mouse hover. This allows to scroll through entries which text does not fit into a single row. Clicking anywhere on an entry in the logger will open the detailed view when applicable. Generic information/errors will now be rendered regardless of which tab is currently selected in the logger (similar to how tabless entries are already being rendered). |

uBlock Origin (uBO)
BEWARE! uBO is (and has always been) COMPLETELY UNRELATED to the website ublock.org.
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.

Installation
Firefox
uBO works best on Firefox and is available for desktop and Android versions.
Thunderbird
In Thunderbird, uBlock Origin does not affect emails, just feeds.
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.
