Important changes for browser users: Numerous extensions are about to end

If Google makes changes to Chrome, it will affect millions of Internet users worldwide. Because the Google browser is not only the most used, but also the basis for other browsers such as Brave, Edge or Opera.

Changes to extensions are also an issue for Chrome users and also on other systems that run Chromium alternatives. Google just says:

For privacy and security reasons, extensions for Chrome and the Chrome Web Store must comply with the new requirements. This can disable Chrome extensions that do not meet these requirements.

Translated, this means that some extensions may suddenly no longer work. You then have to forego these or look for alternatives. For a transition phase until the beginning of 2025, it should be possible to reactivate disconnected extensions, but then it should be over.
