  Adnauseam is great, but it also leaves some ads on pages.

  This works! Firefox + ublock did not.

      You are right. I updated ublock and now it works.

      Not always. Adnauseam makes the anti-adblock bullshit think you’re clicking on ads.

      There’s also adguard for desktop which filters ads through a mechanism that’s outside of your browser, which makes it much more difficult for things running inside web pages to fuck with it.
