A new release of uBlock Origin 1.40, the unwanted content blocker, is available to block ads, malicious elements, motion tracking code, JavaScript miners, and other interfering elements. The uBlock Origin add-on is a high performance and memory efficient add-on that allows you not only to get rid of annoying elements, but also to reduce resource consumption and speed up page loading.
Major changes:
- Improved input autocompletion support in the custom filter editor.
- The ability to suspendTabsUntilReady has been partially stabilized, which allows you to suspend the loading of tabs during browser startup until all filters and uBlock rules are ready.
- The engine has been optimized for processing static network filters.
- Added a scriptlet to call window.close, which allows you to close separately opened windows with ads for which the popup handler does not fire.
- The storage of regex filter templates and string masks in the BidiTrie buffer is provided.
