The cost is you have to give another party total access to all of your data on all sites.
What? You download a blocklist. What gets sent back to ublock?
Except it's open source and anyone can audit the code any time.
If the developer's extension store account were compromised or sold, they'd push an update to you that stole your data before you could react.
You don't have to auto-update extensions.
how does it work on iPhone or on the TV?
