Developer Raymond "gorhill" Hill received two emails from Mozilla about his Firefox add-on uBlock Origin Lite.

Mozilla says that it has reviewed the extension and found violations.

Hill refuted all three claims that Mozilla made on the GitHub repository stating that the extension is not collecting any data.

Hill removed the extension from Mozilla's Add-ons repository as a consequence.

Hill is now self-hosting the extension on GitHub .
