An ad blocker is a tool that prevents advertisements from appearing while you browse the internet.

Ad blockers can also improve page load times and enhance privacy by reducing tracking from ad networks.

- Extension works really well to speed up sites that have way too many ads; has many options, some may say too many. I intentionally configure extension to allow some sites to track me because they benefit me greatly and don't have way too many ads.
- Marko Savovic
- Incredibly useful extension, genuinely one of the greats. Blocks annoying ads & protects your browsing experience. Works on all major browsers (if you are not sure, just try adding it anyway, you may be positively surprised). Used it before it was cool. There are other options, but this one I would genuinely recommend :) Happy and safe browsing!

- This extension works perfectly fine for me. It blocks almost like 99% of ads. One thing is that it sometimes takes a little time to load and also it sometimes cant block popups. But owerall, this is the best ad-blk extension.

- Ian Roddy
- I'm 39 years old and I've contributed to reviews maybe 11 times in my life (at most). However, after over a decided of using Ghostery they politely asked for a review. Literally, I started using Ghostery in college and this is the first time they ever asked me for anything. The service is phenomenal, there is only one site I frequent that makes things difficult with Ghostery and requires I disable it. I know that's a pretty small gripe, but that is the only pseudo-complaint I can think of. It's an amazing product.
