What's New in uBlock Origin Lite

2026.804.1652

August 5, 2026

- Updated filter lists - Note: When the extension updates, allow for a few seconds before it is fully ready (the more rulesets enabled, the longer it takes). Safari needs to internally convert updated DNR rulesets into its native content blocking rules.
