And also it isn't anti-adblocker tech. It is pro-privacy tech which will require adblockers to reengineer how they work which has caused their authors to throw a whine fest and feed some good click bait quotes to the press.

As a veteran chrome extension developer, I'm more inclined to trust extension authors than I am to trust the chrome extension API development team, because it's a bad API with bad documentation and bad performance.

Google's claims that the new API will be faster were already shown to be a blatant lie.

Accusing someone of astroturfing is specifically against the site guidelines (for good reason, it’s like being accused of being a witch. There is no defense against it).

Maybe edit out that paragraph?
