    Google’s stated reasons are technical: MV3 is supposedly more secure (for data collection and ad delivery), more performant (for data collection and ads), reduces complexity (to collect your data and serve ads).

      More secure from adblockers too. They’re protecting the ads.

    I really thought that they already had? Wasn’t that what all the copious copium that Brave Broswer Boys were spreading was all about? The, “no actually I don’t mind that’s it’s chrome based because they have such good Adblock” argument.
