This guy is usually smarter than this. I can’t believe the extreme naïveté here.
I’m reason behind several news stories on Chrome’s problems with extension security, and have lauded Chrome for pushing through innovations despite developer backlash, but I’m concerned their change with APIs used by adblockers has not been adequately explained to public.

So you think that Google wants to mostly-negate ad-blocking because of security? Yeah, right, and I want to fill my bank account up because I really love how zeroes look. Makes total sense.
If you assume the good faith of a large corporation, you will almost certainly be wrong about 99.99% of the time. Why assume Google’s good faith here? When would you ever have been correct about that?
It’s amazing that someone can work in the IT field for so long and still be so clueless about so much. How does that happen? How does it keep happening?
