Is that specifically a browser issue, as opposed to a webscript issue for detection?

Is it still an issue in Librewolf, Brave, and Ungoogled Chromium?

It is a self inflicted wound basically. Google killed support for how those ad blockers work.

Firefox based browsers literally will not have this problem at all.

Four and a half year old article, and yet we're all mostly still blocking ads. I prefer to wait for the sky to actually start falling before I get all worked up about it.
