The main problem that I have with extensions is: "It can: Read and change all your data on all websites" Having my own, local extension I don't have to actually think whether I added some sensitive stuff to be exempt from permissions or not.

At this point of time, uBlock Origin is probably more trustworthy than some browser (read Chrome) themselves.

It's only "your own" to you. Neither uBlock Origin nor your extension from Github are "my own". See?
