Control: severity -1 serious

Privacy Badger is now 5 years out of date. I'm seeing user reports that it no longer works in chromium (I tested it with 140, it possibly broke in earlier versions, and is likely related to the manifest V3 changes).

In addition, as a tool that's intended to protect users against hostile web actors, a lack of updates leaves users with a false sense of security and outdated block lists (and that's assuming no actual security issues!).

It should really be pulled from the archive or updated. In my opinion it shouldn't have been released with trixie in its current state, but c'est la vie.
