Full summary

IMPORTANT: uBlock Origin is completely unrelated to the site "ublock.org".

uBlock Origin is not an "ad blocker", it's a wide-spectrum content blocker with CPU and memory efficiency as a primary feature.

IMPORTANT: Fck overlays is a VERY light extension to give you an option to delete anything on a webpage whenever you want. Fck overlays does not remember anything you have f*cked, so simply REFRESHING the page should cause the element to reappear.

Instructions: Right click on an element you want to delete (usually overlays, but works with other things too). In the context menu, click "f*ck it".

Sometimes you might need to fck multiple elements to get rid of an overlay. In the future, fck overlays may be expanded to support permanent deletion of elements.
