Google’s new extension platform could break ad blockers – what we know

Starting in January 2023, Google will start phasing out the Manifest V2 Chrome extension platform as it moves to Manifest V3. While Google says this new platform will provide better security, new Chrome extension rules could hinder ad blockers.

As detailed in A Blog post (Opens in a new tab) By Google Product Manager David Li, Google may begin discontinuing support for Manifest V2 extensions in the Canary, Dev, and Beta channels with Chrome 112. Then, in June with Chrome 115, the company will begin discontinuing support for Manifest V2 extensions in general channels, including That fixed channel.
