by Angelo, 5 years agoDo not use. It was sold to an Ad company. Adblock Plus is a scam. It allows advertisment of the companies that pays them. It also allows third parties to track you down.

e.g. Adblock Plus uses a deceptive Dark Pattern to make you think that you have blocked third-party web tracking when you actually haven’t: Consumer privacy tool, not so much. If you use ABP, then also run a known good privacy tool such as Privacy Badger to block the tracking that ABP may let through.
