Comment on Your Phone Isn’t Eavesdropping on You to Show You Ads (It’s Worse Than That)
SilentKnightOwl@slrpnk.net 3 days agoI don’t see ads anywhere anymore. I have ublock origin on my phone and PC browsers, I use alternative apps like Grayjay instead of the official YouTube app, and if I can’t block ads on some platform, I just don’t use it.
I understand giving in to ads on some apps if the platform really matters and there’s not an alternative, but why not use ublock origin for the rest? Is it still not well known that you can block ads?

I block ads both on DNS blocklists and browser plugin level. Vanadium unfortunately doesn’t have uBlock origin so I’ll have to improvise something when I start using GrapheneOS on mobile – I don’t get out much.
