Yeah, admittedly, those two things are annoying.
I haven’t personally experienced the adblocker thing though, I suspect it’s not intentional, but I’m purely speculating there.
The censoring thing I have run into, and it is very irritating, so I’m with you on that.
uBO filters won’t work the way they used to because Chrome’s v3 manifest will explicitly prevent them from working the way they have been.
