striverpornographyMy son went to a website today for research purposes and saw some inappropriate ads. Wondering if anyone has an ad blocker that they would recommend?
Thanks a lot Strider!

Ublock origin is the best. See https://ublockorigin.com/.
However, Google is planning to disable chrome extension adblockers. Once Chrome extensions using manifest v2 are disabled the chrome extension adblockers aren't going to work well anymore. Chrome extension ad blockers are the most powerful because they can check the full URL when deciding to block or not. If you use DNS based blockers (which will still work after v2 extensions are disabled) its limited to blocking based only on the domain.
