dependent on it
Where did tracking protection go? It's a shame that half of the features are behind a paywall. Might as well just make the extension a list of links you can visit to opt-out of popular advertisers.
If figured out Avast is tracking and selling data to advertisers. I have uBlock Origin installed and I was randomly getting a popup warning about advertising tracking no matter what site I'm on. At first I didn't know what was causing it. When I disable the Avast extension this it warning stops.
