AdNauseam is a uBlock fork that goes further: it actively attacks marketers by auto-clicking every ad before blocking (adnauseam.io)

It garbles advertisers' data as a result, but you must disable uBlock Origin to run it; they can't work simultaneously. I recently moved to it and, so far, am never looking back!

Fascinating, thanks for sharing! What is the best, current Firefox fork of this one, if you know?

[–] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 1 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

it's a browser extension for Firefox, not a fork of Firefox. Or did I misunderstand you?

I was reacting to its GitHub:

This project is NOT currently being maintained. Code is made available for developers to fork. This is the FireFox version of the project, for Chrome see https://github.com/vtoubiana/TrackMeNot-Chrome.

So I'm wondering which active fork is best to go off of for Firefox. I could've been clearer; my bad.
