➤ About Us:

Download AdBlock for free and experience ad-free browsing on all your favorite websites. Rest assured, this extension prioritizes user privacy and security, ensuring that your browsing history and personal information remain confidential. The extension begins blocking annoying and intrusive ads the moment you install it - you can just set it and forget it. Or you can customize your ad experience further by choosing to see unobtrusive ads or block them entirely, giving you full control over your browsing journey.

We believe in empowering users to dictate their online experience, so we participate in the Acceptable Ads program. This ensures that non-intrusive ads are not blocked by default, allowing users to opt-out easily within the extension’s settings.
