'After being ripped to shreds by angry users, Google engineers have
promised this week that the upcoming changes to Chrome's extensions
system won't cripple ad blockers, as everyone is fearing. Instead, the
company claims that the new extension API changes will actually
improve user privacy and bring speed improvements. Furthermore, Google
also promised to raise a maximum limit in one of the upcoming APIs
that should address and lay to rest the primary criticism brought
against the new extensions API by developers of ad blockers during the
last six months.'
