Why would they do that? The extension implements blacklisting domains.

Part of an industry wide effort to replace the term "blacklist" due to connotations.

GitHub and some other big companies put effort into this, but other than that, it’s a pet project for people with too much time on their hands.

Give it a few years and nobody will remember what the big deal was.

I believe this is also a cultural/political effort to create problems where they don’t exist.
