Yandex browser tries to uninstall the google chrome privacy badger extension.
What is the reason for this behavior?

Are there incompatibility issues or is privacy badger bad because it has a mixture of false positives and bad implementation
that makes your browser experience will deteriorate and certain websites stop to function normally,
due to privacy badger's heuristical approach.

My question is privacy badger creating problems like empty responses or err_network_changed errors?
