In my tests the removals persisted… but as another commenter said, probably wouldn't be good for a site you frequent (assuming ad containers periodically get updated), but is good to get crap out of the way.
Having said that, doesn't replace the need for an adblocker!

by getting popped I mean that the provider somehow exposes/leaks information to an attacker.
A unique password limits the damage to a single provider, but passwords do still rely on good security practices like safe resets, rate limiting, encryption, salting etc etc
I say this as both someone who maintains auth for an app, but also a user. The organisational risk of passwords feels too high imo so I’m quite interested in leaving passwords behind!

do you blindly trust random websites have good security policies (salting passwords, encryption etc?)? Or use another login mechanism? What happens when someone gets popped?

If you see passkeys authentication offered by a website signup, are you using it?

when the company fails they’ll still have a saleable asset, tho getting the same as they’ve paid for it is probably going to be difficult
