Raymond Hill (@gorhill) is the original author of uBlock and the originator of the name/brand as well. My original post on this repo about this over 3 years ago, #1744, was censored by @chrisaljoudi. But you can some of what I wrote on this uBlock-Safari comment I made around that time.

@chrisaljoudi took Raymond's open source work and then made ublock.org where he solicited donations, never telling anyone that the person who did the work was someone else. He then created uBlock-LLC so he could sell the name and work to AdBlock.

You can also see:

I'm sure if Raymond Hill hired a good lawyer he could sue AdBlock and win, but he's too busy doing real work, for free.
