uBlock Origin by Raymond Hill respects & safeguards user Privacy. Enough said. Need more? I am a programmer and have been using uBlock since I saw it about 3 years ago. Like the addon named Decentraleyes by Thomas Rientjes, uBlock is a vital addon if Privacy & Security matter. uBlock does what it claims to do AND works as stated. Read the Privacy policy of uBlock, it is how ALL Privacy policies should read. uBlock's Privacy policy states, "uBlock Origin does not collect any data of any kind. uBlock Origin has no home server. uBlock Origin doesn't embed any kind of analytic hooks in its code. The only time uBlock Origin connects to a remote server is to update the filter lists and other related assets. If you disable auto-update in the '3rd-party filters' pane in the dashboard, uBlock Origin will not connect to any remote server, unless you click 'Update now' and only if there are assets deemed 'out of date'".

We as netizins need to give a huge amount of respect to programmers like Raymond Hill and Thomas Rientjes for respecting their users and caring enough about fellow humans, in this age of absolute and unfettered greed, to enforce such awesome Privacy policies in modern products. Thank you Raymond.
