Could you build this?
Partial Building an ad/tracker/cookie blocker that blocks content without declaring broad host permissions requires deep mastery of the Chrome/Safari declarativeNetRequest API and modern browser security models.
What it would actually take: Requires a Manifest V3 extension relying strictly on declarativeNetRequest rule lists and cosmetic filtering without broad host permissions (<all_urls>). The system must convert dynamic filter lists (EasyList, cosmetic selectors) into static and rule-set limits enforced by modern browsers. Deep expertise in browser extension sandboxes, content scripts, and rule compilation is mandatory.
