ad blocker

Banner removal tool

An ad blocker is software that prevents advertisements from displaying on websites and apps.

Browser extensions like uBlock Origin filter out banner ads, pop-ups, and video ads before they load.

Some ad blockers also block tracking scripts that follow users across sites.

I installed an ad blocker because the pop-ups were unbearable.
