Tell HN: Beware of the fake uBlock Origin in Chrome Web Store
chromewebstore.google.comSomeone has hijacked the name "uBlock Origin" (for an extension) in the Chrome Web Store. When you search for "uBlock Origin", you’re shown a fake extension (1,000 users) with a "Featured" badge instead of the real one (17,000,000 users) at https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ublock-origin/cjpal...
How in the world did it get a Featured badge?
For that matter, how in the world did it get approved by Google? Asleep at the wheel.
Stop using fake browsers already
