Saw this TUI (UK travel agency) advert today on the new tab page, and uBlock Origin can’t block it

    that does not look like a vanilla Firefox. You should not have those ads there. Check out installed extensions

      What part of it doesn’t? Besides the massive banner added the bottom of the screen, everything looks like it’s the default. That icon in the top-left corner comes preinstalled. The search engine is still the default. The only customization I see here is an extra theme and a couple of add-ons.

          I wondered why this was downvoted before I saw the original message in my notifications

          yeah, thanks Mr/Ms obvious, you described exactly the reason of why it does not look vanilla at all, that big giant bottom ad banner

          Anyway, my point is that I would assume Firefox would look different if there was evidence the user caused this banner by accidentally injecting malware into the browser within Linux.
