EasyList probably should not redirect to AdBlock Plus's page
EasyList should probably not redirect to ABP's page. It predates ABP, it's not maintained by ABP's parent company, it officially supports three different ad blockers, and they do not officially recommend any particular one. Notriddle (talk) 20:45, 25 August 2019 (UTC)
- If you can think of a better place to redirect it fine, but perhaps the best solution is to turn the redirect into an article itself, if enough sources can be located. - Ahunt (talk) 12:45, 26 August 2019 (UTC)

Added some clarification of between uBlock Origin and uBlock
Hi all, I modified the History chapter to reflect it more factually.
To summarize, Chris didn't 'fork' uBlock, Raymond Hill transferred the official repo to him. Of course, Raymond re-forked it back later (actually almost immediately after) to his own user namespace, which became today's uBlock Origin. I added references too.
Disclaimer: I'm no Chris "supporter" and find his commercial practice questionable, but the old writing was simply wrong and has mislead people before (see my original comments on Hacker News). --fireattack (talk) 19:41, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
