Questions tagged [adblock]

AdBlockers are the range of tools aimed to remove advertisements from web-pages.

Tools to block advertisements include:

  • Native in-browser tools (Opera's content blocker, IE9's tracking protection)
  • Browser add-ons (AdBlock Plus)
  • Greasemonkey scripts
  • External applications (AdMuncher)
  • System level IP/Domain filtration (via firewall, or editing Hosts file)

Adblockers have significant impact on website monetisation, and thus - are frequently tried to be circumvented by certain website authors / owners.
