Re: [Bug-gnuzilla] Build Spyblock from uBlock Origin

[mdn]

Icecat is already limited by the number of volunteers, I would like to
volunteer but my capacities are I think to limited to help on a
technical level for now (if someone has spare time to teach me I have no
problem with learning).
Reusing software that works especially if they are under GPL is I think
not a problem.

Users have always the freedom to deactivate them and put something else,
contrarily to the "eme" and other bad software that mozilla integrated.

µblock origin is really a good extension I personally use it icecat.
We could go further with umatrix but people are too much disturbed by it.

A functionality that would be interesting is when icecat opens for the
first time, a new window could propose to activate the addons in the
browser with a small explication of what it does.
