AdNauseam is a uBlock fork that goes further: it actively attacks marketers by auto-clicking every ad before blocking
A browser extension that clicks on every blocked ad to fight advertising surveillance.
It garbles advertisers' data as a result, but you must disable uBlock Origin to run it; they can't work simultaneously. I recently moved to it and, so far, am never looking back!
You're viewing a single thread.
You know this is the good shit because when it first came out a few years back google was running a huge disinformation campaign against it. You'd search for "adnauseum" in google and the first result would be an article from some weird advertising company calling is "insecure" and "malware" without any actual argumentation behind those claims, while no other search engine returned that article (I lost the screenshots, so yall are just gonna have to take my word for it). They also delisted it from the chrome store for not discernible reason. They were afraid.
But nowadays I'm willing to bet that they figured out how to detect adnauseum's fake clicks and filtering it out. Stuff like that needs a talented development team to keep it up to date.
Has the same limitations as uBlock Origin with Manifest v3 and won't work in Chrome.
If you're still using chrome at this point that's on you.
I was actually curious about this as we're forced to use Edge or.Chrome at work.
I use Librewolf. The comment was meant as info for those who think that having uBlock as a base still holds significance in light of Manifest v3.
I meant the general "you." "People" would have worked.
Or a Chrome derivative
The solution is simple. Chrome ditches manifest v2? Ditch Chrome.
