AdBlock
Popup prevention software
AdBlock is browser software that prevents advertisements from displaying on websites.
Users install it as an extension to block pop-ups, video ads, and banner ads, resulting in faster page loads and fewer distractions.
The term has become somewhat generic, referring to any ad-blocking software regardless of brand.
Publishers and content creators often view ad blockers negatively since they interfere with advertising revenue.
I installed AdBlock because the pop-ups were unbearable.
