What is ad blocking?
Ad blocking extensions, browsers, VPNs or DNS solutions act like a firewall between the web browser and all known ad servers. Most ads are blocked by open-source web browser extensions, installed by end users. The database of blocked ad servers is curated by a large and active open source community. The most popular ad block extensions are Adblock Plus and AdBlock. Once installed, these extensions automatically block ads on all websites and are effective against almost all ad formats.
