Hi all, I’m sure you all know that with iOS 9 and OS X El Capitan came new content blocking extensions.
With iOS, it is clearly stated that content blocking extensions are only filters and can’t send any information about what was blocked back to the app. However, with OS X I’m not sure what the situation is. There are lots of new ad blocking extensions that you can download from the Safari extensions gallery, some of which seem to include web components, toolbars, and the like. Which ones have people found to be worthwhile? Is there any way to tell what data they can collect and what else they might be installing? Is there somewhere I can read up on how the new content blockers for OS X work and what they’re permitted to do?
