Description

System: ChromeOS Flex
Browser: Chrome 138 Beta

Description: I apologize if this is in the wrong Place .
I installed your Extension this Morning. Immediately your ad Blocker started to run and sopposable is sopposed to stop Block Ups. Instead it went to every single Page your Extension is to Block. And on Every Single Page, I got hooked by malicious webhooks. Not sure how your exact functions are. But if your web scraping to stop the annoying ads. I suggest a new way to force block these, as anyone else would probably be loosing their system now. Caused DOS on several Pages and Sites, not from your blocking but from the sites I was forced to go too.

Research direction

The report names ChromeOS Flex, Chrome 138 Beta, and the Avast extension, but provides no repository file, test, or entry point to inspect. Reproduce the reported navigation and blocking behavior in the stated environment first; a complete fix would require a confirmed cause and a narrowly defined expected result.
