Comment:
Instead of doing this opening and closing dance which is quite annoying,
someone could try to actually analyze the proposed privacy, security, and
performance gains adding $extension to Tor Browser, especially compared to
the privacy, security, etc. means Tor Browser *already* offers. Please,
include the downsides of adding $extension to the browser as well (our
design document might help).
Regarding Tails including an adblocker, you might want to re-read

Do make this clear here: there are no short- or medium-term plans to
include an adblocker in Tor Browser.
