MODERATORS
This article has some misinformation in places. Like it claims Vivaldi's ad-blocker cannot be investigated further because the project is closed source, but the only closed source part of Vivaldi is the UI (approximately 5% of the total code). The ad-blocker C++ code is published along with the other 95% of the browser's code.
I was actually under the impression the whole browser was closed. Thanks for the clarification
It is, it is just source available. Still closed source.
