one important caveat though: if you're on Chrome, uBlock Origin was gutted by Google in late 2024 as part of their Manifest V3 changes. the full version no longer works on Chrome. for real protection you need Firefox or Brave
OR UngoogledChromium uBlock from

Add localcdn or privacy Badger.
Do not use googles store, it is a pernicious tracker... and

@Kerplunk @k3ym0 @QuercusMacrocarpa @ublockorigin We're building an open-source, system-wide ad-blocker called Zen. It sits outside the browser, so it's unaffected by the artificial limitations of Manifest V3 (among other benefits), so I'd recommend it to anyone still using Chrome. We're aiming for 100% feature parity with uBO and other ad-blockers (already 90% there). Check it out if you're interested: https://github.com/ZenPrivacy/zen-desktop
