This was all about the news probably 2 years ago. Chrome uses a new api manifest that does not allow for changes in websites like blocking specific type of content. Once manifest v3 is fully implemented and enforced there will be no way for ublock origin to work correctly anymore.

Didn’t realized v3 was nurfed on purpose, should never give google the benefit of the doubt.
