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

Required Permissions

Firefox

Firefox Add-ons

Development Builds

uBO works best on Firefox and is available for desktop and Android versions.

Thunderbird

Thunderbird Add-ons

In Thunderbird, uBlock Origin does not affect emails, just feeds.

Chromium

Chrome Web Store

Microsoft Edge Add-ons (Published by: Nicole Rolls)

Opera Add-ons

Development Builds

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.
