  Description : companion to uBlock Origin to expose websocket connections

uBO-WebSocket

A companion extension for Chromium-based browsers to expose websocket 
connections to uBlock Origin.


This request is to package uBlock Origin WebSocket, a companion to uBlock 
Origin, an general-purpose tool commonly used
for ad-blocking in  web browsers.  This extension exposes websockets to uBlock 
Origin, allowing it to operate on
websocket content as well.

Sean Whitton is packaging uBlock Origin for Debian.  Sean, would you be able to 
package uBO-WebSocket, too?

Hi Sean,

My Debian to-do list is presently quite long.  As a result, I will not

were to prepare a package, I would be happy to provide a review of their
packaging much sooner.


Thanks for your offer.  Is it safe to say that the xul-ext-ublock-origin 
package (and virtual friends) serve as a good model for the suggested 
ublock-origin-websocket (uBO-WebSocket) extension?
