- macintux 7y agoMakes the marketing claim that much more amusing. > …to speed up page loads, eliminate clutter…
- userbinator 7y agoTo be fair, hiding elements may mean not fetching any resources needed for their content, which can be faster despite having to parse a bunch of additional CSS first to determine which ones to hide --- especially if the former involves the execution of JavaScript.
- aasasd 7y agoLoading one snippet from an extension (i.e. the cache) is vastly faster than loading dozens of scripts and styles over the network.
- xeeeeeeeeeeenu 7y agoIn my case it was Opera's built-in ad blocker.
- Tarrosion 7y agoWhat does this mean about Opera's ad blocker? (I also see a ton of junk up top when Opera's block ads is enabled, but I don't know what to make of this.)
- userbinator 7y agoIt means that it's more of an ad-hider than a blocker, adding more CSS to hide the relevant elements instead of stripping them out completely (which something like a MITM proxy could easily do.)
- bt3 7y agoYep this was it. Thanks to all for your concerns of my potentially malware-infected PC, alas, it was just an ad-blocker.
- z3t4 7y agoVanilla Chrome will also inject code if you have a * style rule.
