      Why not include a list of all the extensions? A couple are mentioned, but it sounds like there’s lot more.

      Let me save you a click – they claim there were many, but only name 2. There is no list at all. So maybe, or maybe this is just clickbait.

      It wouldn’t surprise me if a dodgy firm just bought popular extensions for this purpose, happens all the time for things like apps.

      Probably wouldn’t take a crazy amount of money.

      For those that dont want to click the article, the mentioned extensions are

      Clean Master by Starlab Technology

      WeTab

      And Infinity V+ is mentioned as an example of a similar attack that took place 2 years ago, inactive now.

      Good thing they moved to Manifest v3 to keep their users safe from scary ad blockers!
