Someone has hijacked the name "uBlock Origin" (for an extension) in the Chrome Web Store. When you search for "uBlock Origin", you’re shown a fake extension (1,000 users) with a "Featured" badge instead of the real one (17,000,000 users) at https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ublock-origin/cjpal...

How in the world did it get a Featured badge?

For that matter, how in the world did it get approved by Google? Asleep at the wheel.
