[^1]: uBlock Origin Lite *itself* will consume no resources, because it uses newer APIs which make the browser process the filter lists natively, instead of running JavaScript code within the extension to handle the filtering. However, this resource advantage is only [theoretical](https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home/wiki/Frequently-asked-questions-(FAQ)#is-ubol-more-efficient-cpu--and-memory-wise-than-ubo), because it's possible that standard uBlock Origin's filtering code is more efficient than your browser's native filtering code. This has not yet been benchmarked.
[^2]: A [workaround](https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/discussions/3690#discussioncomment-14548779) stil exists as of early December 2025.
[^2]: [Brave](https://brave.com/blog/brave-shields-manifest-v3/) and [Opera](https://xcancel.com/Opera_Security/status/2066543496001888753) have committed to maintain MV2 support for as long as they're able to.
[^3]: This is starting to change, as MV3 extensions can now request to use scripts. This has enabled [AdGuard](https://adguard.com/en/blog/adguard-browser-extension-v5-2.html) to propose to import custom filters list by the url, as opposed to having to manually paste the rules, as is the case with uBOL.

Excluding the Nitrokey 3, Nitrokeys which support HOTP and TOTP do not have encrypted storage, making them vulnerable to physical attacks.
Starting with Nitrokey 3, HOTP and TOTP secrets are additionally encrypted at rest. Older Nitrokey devices like Nitrokey Pro 2 and Nitrokey Storage 2 did not encrypt OTP secrets at rest, which makes the OTP secrets on these devices potentially vulnerable to physical attacks.
