There's a new AdBlock app....
I installed the new AdBlock app in a clone to see how it differs from the extension and found two glaring differences, one good...one bad; which is which is a personal decision.
First, as noted in AdBlock's Safari > Prefs >
Extensions pane entry, the app (v 1.9.1) is more secure than the extension (v 2.69.0).
Second, AdBlock can no longer "Block an ad on this page", i.e. it can no longer block ANY html element on a page. (I've emailed Rhana at AdBlock and asked if the feature's return is in the cards.)
Personally, I'm willing to forego the security, particularly in a situation who's security has never been in question other than technically, for the "block"
feature; the amount of eye garbage it's removed from assorted website screens is simply amazing!
