Milestone
Regional lists are currently baked into the adblock-rust repository, which means they're compiled with each version of Brave. Since we ship them from our servers, it makes more sense to serve a dynamic catalog of available regional lists. This way, if a regional list is added, modified, or removed, the list shown in
brave://adblock
can automatically be updated to reflect the change.This will also drastically reduce the amount of effort required to ship a filter list change, which currently requires updating/publishing several different repositories (most relevant here are
adblock-rust
,adblock-rust-ffi
,brave-core
, andbrave-core-crx-packager
). This change can make the update process as frictionless as a single commit toadblock-resources
