💚 The team behind uAssets, the filter lists used by uBlock Origin, says it will stop fixing ad-blocking issues on Facebook. They say Facebook keeps finding ways around new fixes, making the work increasingly difficult to sustain.
This won’t affect AdGuard’s Facebook filters. We maintain our own rules and will continue updating them.
There’s nothing to celebrate here. It shows how hard it is for small, often volunte…

🫥 You didn't log in, didn't leave an email, switched on "incognito" — and the site still recognizes you. How?
It's because of your digital fingerprint. As you simply open a page, your browser helpfully reveals dozens of small things: device model, OS version, language, screen resolution, installed fonts, time zone, exactly how your graphics card renders images. Individually, not a big deal. Together, a combination t…

🔗 Copy any link from social media and look at the tail: ?utm_source=…&fbclid=…
That's not a technical necessity, those are tags. They tell the site where you came from, and some (like fbclid) can tie your click to your social profile. And when you forward that link to a friend, you send your tags along with it.
💚 AdGuard's Tracking protection (formerly Stealth Mode) strips these tails automatically: the page opens …

AdGuard Mini is designed to run quietly in the background. But when ad blocking suddenly stops working after a macOS update or data migration to a new Mac, tracking down the issue can be tricky. In the latest version of AdGuard Mini, we decided to take the hassle out of it — now the app diagnoses problems on the fly, explains what's wrong, and show…

Anyone working with AI coding assistants like Claude Code or Codex knows those painful pauses: the model is "thinking" over a complex task, and you're stuck staring at the screen. Sometimes it’s a few seconds; other times, it’s 10 to 15 minutes or even more.
A startup called Kickbacks.ai wants to monetize that downtime. The service serv…

A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999.
