BEWARE! uBlock Origin (uBO) is (and has always been) COMPLETELY UNRELATED to the website ublock.org.
The donations sought by the individual behind ublock.org ("to keeps uBlock development possible", a misrepresentation) are not benefiting any of those who contributed most to create uBO (developers, translators, and all those who put efforts in opening specific issues). For the differences between uBO and uBlock, see the unbiased Wikipedia article.
