IMO it's only a matter of time before LLMs will include ads. Current pricing isn't covering the costs of running LLMs and brands will pay a high price for being favored in responses.
But how such adverts would look like?
... By the way, have you heard about Squarespace?
I tried uBlock Origin Lite for a very short time. Then I realized that in Lite, the user can’t add custom rules[0]. That’s when I had enough. So now I’m using Firefox instead, where I can use uBlock Origin. [0] See https://old.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/1in2ls4/ubloc...
These will die if Firefox dies as well. Its a dire situation!
Already migrated my Firefox to Librewolf, just need to find something for Chrome, as I don't really follow the scene close.
Google is milking a dying cow. LLMs are much better in searching for information than advertisement-exposure optimized google. People are paying for LLMs, consumers are no longer a commodity. Internet will change, maybe creators will be paid for their content? But what will happen with advertisers?

They mention "other browsers" in addition to Firefox that will continue to support Manifest v2, but I can't find a list. Does anyone know off-hand the additional browser options for Manifest V2 and multiple-OS support?
I think some Chromium-based browsers like Brave have pledged that they'll keep v2 around for as long as it's practical? Though IMO, people who depend on Manifest v2 with Chromium forks are running on borrowed time, Chromium moves fast and I can't imagine that keeping the Manifest v2 code working will be very easy. Especially if Google takes advantage of the limited access extensions now have to the HTTP request flow…
