AdBlock for Firefox by AdBlock
Review by Lars Ahlstrom
Rated 3 out of 5
by Lars Ahlstrom, 7 years agoAs a newbie, I stay neutral for 2 weeks. If I see that this boat float, and above that, even gets my browsing snappier, I will return raising my admirement, and pay you the fee u then deserve. Personally I really prefer software that specializes on one environment only. Otherwise, software made for "ALL" end up being all for Linux, MacCrap or other browsers. I for example threw out Chrome the other day as I experienced a password security unavoidable LOOP. And I feel much better as a human being w/o Chrome. And Win10 "Edge" is just a laugh. It starts up with a blue screen with a cogwheel, and there it stays.... Why? VPN allergy, I guess. And so it too found a secure place in my "password hysteria dump." Being with this personal computer revolution, since 1980, I just wonder why this extreme security mentality tend to kill off the happiness of computing. Microsoft Hotmail f-ex - dont miss remembering your "letter, capital, number, special char" passwords. Your life will be more unsecure and shorter... :D Just use your childhood friends telephone numbers. Things u never stop remembering. Sorry for going way offtopic... I'll return, Honestly and humble! ;)

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17173321, 3 days agoConstant pop ups from AD Blocker itself to pay $$$. I got an adblocker to AVOID pop ups. Kinda ironic!

- Rated 1 out of 5by Luiz, a month agoWhy would an ad blocker require access to "my data across ALL websites"? Beats me. If that changes, I might reconsider. Peace.

posted 10 days agoAd blockers first block a site's requests to download ads, then hide the ones that can't be blocked. To do that, the extension needs to see every page you open so that AdBlock can work on every page you visit. It also needs to find unblocked ads and change the data on the page by adding code to hide unblocked ads. — Kat C., AdBlock Support Developer response

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18809457, a month agoFantastic tool. Unfortunately, Since about a year YouTube is intelligent enough to see that adblocker software is installed and then even blocks your access to them.
So do a few other sites I use this tool with.
Would be great if AdBlock finds a compromise/way to maybe allow a certain amount of ads and then block others.
I really hate YouTube for forcing people to pay Premium.Developer response

I'm glad you're enjoying AdBlock. — Kat C., AdBlock Support- Rated 3 out of 5by Seraphael, 2 months agoAllowing ads on specific YouTube channels rarely works as expected - in fact, it very often has the opposite effect. Ads frequently play on channels that haven't enabled them, while failing to appear on channels you want to support with ads.
