ublock "ads, trackers, coin miners, popups"

Show all headers | View raw

as a long-time windows user, ublock origin has turned out to be the 
most useful browser extension ever (others also helpful, e.g. clear    
cache, etc.), even tor browser added ublock by default owing to its 
essential usefulness and popularity
   
as ublock's site https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock describes itself: 
>...   
> blocks ads, trackers, coin miners, popups, annoying anti-blockers,
> malware sites, etc.    

planet earth has ever been a highly predatory environment, governed  
by "them" as even the bible and other ancient texts, histories, etc. 
have universally attested that "they" are the terrestrial predators,
genetically separated from the servient taxonomic genere or species    
    
but ublock origin works great. . . the tiny icon displays unfolding 
block counts on typically intrusive domains, and click the icon for  
a quick summary of the ever-increasing tally:  
>...  
>             <#url> 
>      blocked on this page 
>             # (#%)    
>       domains connected    
>           # out of #     
>      blocked since install       
>             # (#%)  
   
i find that some websites quickly show hundreds and into thousands 
of blocks, especially on pages with streaming content, movies, etc.    
(the global "ignore" filter is usenet's simple adaptation of block, 
which you can selectively "watch" or "killfile" at your discretion)
