Description

user story: As a person who has chosen to reduce privacy labor by delegating the micromanagement of advertising features to a trusted extension, I want to avoid adding an extra to-do item in addition to the extension selection process I have already made.

Add a WebExtensions section to this document, covering how a browser extension can manage this feature similarly to how other advertising-related site functionality is already covered.

(A browser that is a "gatekeeper" in some jurisdictions may require this in order to offer both content-blocking features in extensions and attribution tracking, without preferencing its own service.)
