manifest v3: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/intro/

> Manifest V3 is part of a shift in the philosophy behind how we approach end-user security and privacy.

it requrires you to declaratively specify what to block in advance, so it's going to be pretty easy to write some logic that can't be declaratively specified

I suspect killing the adblockers is the entire reason behind it
