Ublock Origin integration

[ghost]

Ublock has many extra blocking options that are not available in Brave such as extra filters for privacy. It is possible to have the ublock origin plugin integrated with Brave?

We'll be improving our adblocking over time, but some of the options you want are in about:adblock. I think for consistency with the other products and speed of the native library, we'll be sticking with our implementation of adblock so I'll close this. But I'd encourage you to please post specific things you'd like to see that we add.

Hi I appreciate the effort you're putting into the internal ad blocking, but currently it's just too leaky. I'm getting a lot of ads falling through the blocker, notably: twitter, gmail, twitch. This is just in my first few hours of trying Brave.

Hoping you'll reconsider uBlock Origin integration at least until the internal engine comes up to speed.
