Is Ad Blocker Chrome extension - block ads safe?
Ad Blocker Chrome extension sends install and update telemetry with a persistent user ID and browser/system fingerprint.
When the extension is installed or updated, it creates or reuses a persistent local user ID and sends telemetry events to Amplitude. Those events include the user ID, language, browser and extension versions, side panel support, and system details such as platform, screen size, timezone, memory info, and user agent high-entropy values. The same user ID is also added to the extension's uninstall and post-install URLs on chrome-adblocker.com.
