The donations sought by the [individual](https://github.com/chrisaljoudi/) behind `ublock.org` (_"to keeps uBlock development possible"_, [a misrepresentation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UBlock_Origin#uBlock_.28ublock.org.29)) are _not_ benefiting any of those who contributed most to create uBlock Origin ([developers](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/graphs/contributors), [translators](https://crowdin.com/project/ublock), and all those who put efforts in opening detailed issues).

uBlock Origin is **NOT** an "ad blocker": [it is a wide-spectrum blocker](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Blocking-mode) -- which happens to be able to function as a mere "ad blocker". The default behavior of uBlock Origin when newly installed is to block ads, trackers and malware sites -- through [_EasyList_](https://easylist.github.io/#easylist), [_EasyPrivacy_](https://easylist.github.io/#easyprivacy), [_Peter Lowe’s ad/tracking/malware servers_](https://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/policy.php), various lists of [malware](http://www.malwaredomainlist.com/) [sites](http://www.malwaredomains.com/), and uBlock Origin's [own filter lists](https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/tree/master/filters).
