his response to this is pretty beautiful:

quote:

I won't re-submit to try to have the dev build restored in the CWS, uBO does not "bundle unrelated functionality" as implied in the email, thus closing as wontfix.

but then followed by

quote:

Just for the sake of having tried, I submitted 1.22.5rc2, and I received the same exact answer as above.

I also sent the following reply:

quote:

There is no "bundles of unrelated functionality" in uBlock Origin.

Could you please be more specific about which part of uBlock Origin you
consider to be a "bundle"?

This was the answer:

Dear Developer,

In other words, stonewalling.

Since the next uBO release will essentially be what 1.22.5rc2 is, consider that uBO is probably coming to an end of life in the Chrome Web Store -- there is no good reason to believe uBO 1.22.5rc2 would no longer be rejected with only changing the version number to 1.23.0.

Those who still want to use uBO will have to find another browser for which uBO will still be available.

wow this is pretty brazen and consumer-hostile

i mean they are also changing the api to make useful ad blockers impossible, but that at least has the fig leaf of "performance" or some such poo poo

"extension quality" is a pretty weak fig leaf

javascript basically gave us chrome

like the reason for chrome to exist was to run javascript really, really fast, so that the ad company could make money off of more-engaging web applications

dhtml and js were a mistake
