It’s almost the end of the year, and it might be a good time to do a purge of your browser extensions. The sad reality of not being able to browse the modern internet without an ad blocker or without a video codec plug-in sucks. While you can absolutely set up a self-hosted one on your system, most average users are probably just going to install uBlock Origin (or something similar) as an extension on their browsers. If you use the Internet often, especially on desktop, you probably have a number of browser plugins that go beyond ad blocking. Plugins are the best thing to happen to the internet since frames and marquee tags went out of style. But as with everything these days, there’s a hidden danger: outdated plugins that could cause some trouble(if you’re not careful).
