The AllBlock Chromium ad blocking extension has been found to be injecting hidden affiliate links that generate commissions for the developers.
This extension is still available on Chrome’s Web Store and promotes itself as an ad blocker that focuses on YouTube and Facebook to prevent pop-ups and speed up browsing.
