Smart Adblocker is a free software that can block all ads online. It can be used as a lightweight browser extension, or as a standalone application. Adblocker blocks all ads by default. Adblocker also blocks tracking cookies, which are used to collect information about your browsing activity. This helps prevent advertisers from tracking your behavior and selling it to third parties.
Adblocker is highly effective at blocking ads and removing clutter from the browsing experience. If you're one of these people, then you should consider using an ad blocker with light filtering capabilities instead of Adblocker with heavy filtering capabilities.
