Apparently, YouTube have been slowing down Firefox users and especially users with adblockers enabled.
I thought it was a weird coincidence that both my Firefox and Mercury (a fork) browser experienced massive slowdown on YouTube. It wasn't just loading the YouTube pages, both of the browsers can't even load YouTube videos as fast as they should.
Both browsers were able to load YouTube videos at normal speeds again after disabling this plugin. I've tried disabling and enabling multiple times to be sure. Some Firefox users reported that they did not experience any of the slowdowns regardless of the news. It could be the usual experimental rollout that YouTube always do and perhaps my browsers' fingerprints changed the moment I disabled this addon.
As of now, YouTube is fast again even with this addon enabled.

It has been a great companion to my Malwarebytes Premium. However, recent updates have killed its efficiency and performance, making Firefox extremely slow.
I've noticed huge slowdowns every time I open Firefox. Not only that, I lost the ability to watch videos above 1080p with this extension enabled as it is simply killing Firefox behind the scenes for no apparent reason.
I only found out this extension to be the cause of it by using Firefox's troubleshooting mode. As soon as I enabled this extension, Firefox became very sluggish and slow.
I'll write them an email about this but for now, avoid it at all costs. If you already have Malwarebytes Premium installed on your PC, I don't see a reason why anyone would need this companion extension.

Also, the 'Access your data for all websites' option is listed as optional, but it’s necessary for the program to work. I know you’ve been pretty transparent about how the data is used, but this does raise some concerns about data security as the company isn’t open-source. - Se valoró con 1 de 5por GlennS, el hace 2 meses

- Se valoró con 3 de 5por Disaster Area, el hace 2 mesesThis add-on is pretty good and helps prevent malware from being downloaded, as well as helps to avoid unsafe websites. However, today it started causing a massive memory leak whenever I opened my browser. My memory utilisation goes from about 40% with the add-on off to staying at 100% with the add-on active and websites will barely load. Hopefully this is fixed soon and I can re-enable the add-on.

- Se valoró con 1 de 5por grahamperrin, el hace 2 mesesBrowser performance (with many tabs) suffers terribly if both Malware and Scams are switched on in addition to Ads/Trackers. For Malware, and for Scams, global switches are terribly broken: after switching off globally at one tab, I find both features wrongly switched on globally at another tab. I'll gather debug logs and discuss in the forums.
Also, the release notes here at AMO are wildly inconsistent with the release notes at the Malwarebytes website.Respuesta del desarrollador
