I switched to Brave a couple of months ago because of this thread. Will this update have any effect on Brave’s adblocker?

What Manifest V3 means for Brave Shields and the use of extensions in the Brave browser | Brave

Brave is committed to maintaining Manifest V2 support, allowing users to keep their favorite extensions functioning beyond the industry-wide deprecation.

brave.com

In late 2021, Google first announced plans to deprecate Manifest V2 (MV2), the longstanding Chrome extension manifest file format, and force extensions to be built using Manifest V3 (MV3) going forward. What does this mean for Brave users? In short:

• Manifest V3 will not weaken Brave Shields in any way
• For as long as we’re able (and assuming the cooperation of the extension authors), Brave will continue to support some privacy-relevant MV2 extensions—specifically AdGuard, NoScript, uBlock Origin, and uMatrix

Brave Shields block ads and trackers by default, and they’re built natively in the Brave browser—no extensions required. Since Shields are patched directly onto the open-source Chromium codebase, they don’t rely on MV2 or MV3.

These motherfukkers worship ads. shyt is disgusting.

Google makes the majority of it's revenue from ads. They are effectively an advertising company that uses its cutting edge and popular technology tools like search and YouTube to generate revenue through user traffic and ad clicks. That's how they offer their products for free. There are other paid services that provide what a lot of google's various tools do.
