@Vivaldi it would be great to have uBlock Origin Lite on the Android version, to block more ads using CSS. Network blocking isn't enough for some sites, like slashdot.

@fesshole Pro-tip, install a local pi-hole on mobile devices (which leave your local network, which could have it's network wide pi-hole) so that not only browsers are protected, but the whole device. It also makes websites not detect you have an adblocker so you can browse freely.
Continued thread
Politics had totally changed, instead of having politicians, you only had puppets for the big tech companies: all those puppets did, was make sure that it's companies kept getting more financially powerful, and kept getting even more invasive, as if that were even possible
I mean they were a literally up your digestive track already, all the way to your spinkster.
Don't let me talk about flying; it takes you literally 72 hours to book a ticke; 8 hours a day you have to follow those dreadful procedures of which 90% is just ads, to finally get the seat booked with six screens pointed at you only bombarding you with advertisements.
Trains were even worse; Walls of screens, almost no place to sit, let alone sit comfortably.
In busses they left you alone, but what they did, is make the bus almost totally transparent and make sure that all the of the massive screens at the buildings were pointing at you, giving out all your personal information for everyone else to see, including your menstrual cycle, the size of your prostate, and everything else that's supposed to be medically sealed, just to show you walls and walls of advertisements regarding those medical status parameters.
And do not think that when you're finally at home sleeping, away from your dreadful job, and asleep that you sleep cycle was normal
Remember those devices that implanted in you at Birth? Those devices injected at advertisements in your dreams making your sleep horrific and tiring.
Suicide rates were skyrocketing; it was normal to lose a friend every month who succumbed to suicide because of the horrific carpet bombing advertisements raids. There were more psychiatrists than regular physicians. Funeral parlors were the only places where business was booming for the private sector, owned by fairly regular people.
Mercedes-Benz almost exclusively made funeral cars because that's what's sold the most and the best and asked for the most, by those who could still afford cars

I've just woken up from a horrific IT Nightmare.
Only commercial companies were providing services on the internet, Open Source did not exist, Linus Torvalds was never born, Netscape has never come into fruition.
Every website you went to you have to go through 12 pages of advertisements bombarding you with all the flashes all the sounds and even even HTML5 did not exist everything was Flash!
There are only two browsers available Google Chrome and Microsoft Internet Explorer. Browser extensions were non-existent; everybody went on the internet like a drone and endured the horrific bombardment of advertisements like carpet bombs falling on your mind, as if you were in Vietnam, getting bombarded by The Enemy Flying B-52 fortresses.
All the Services constantly changed their end-user license agreement, your mobile devices had eight cameras pointed at you and none to the outside world. Those devices also had seven microphones of which the worst was used for you to talk into with your people and Friends, the six others were used to listen to you environment and sent everything outside.
Tracking devices were planted in your body at Birth, you are constantly itching because of all those devices in your system, giving you skin irritation and making your complexion like that of sandpaper.
Even going outside in your garden was horrific, micro drones were constantly following you, listening and looking at everything you do, even if you don't have any mobile devices on you.
Stores were even worse, everything you bought had tracking and tracing, even The Food you ate had tracking, and traces were going to your digestive track all the way to the toilet.
And while you were sitting there you had to endure advertisements for every time you use the toilet.
There were 12 financially Rich families on the planet everyone else was economic slave.
All religions were converted to advertisement bombardment Systems and to subjugation of people to Ads

So, I can not watch any YouTube video anymore with my ad-blocker on. I got warnings all over the place against using the anti-advertisement tools. My guess is using Freetube to circumvent this or watch nothing on that site at all.
Can I live without YouTube? Yes, I can. Would I turn off my ad-locker with my arm twisted on my back, like now? No, not at all. It perfectly fits my turning away from American products and services.
An exploratory fly-by of Pi-Hole 6
—The Register
｢ Pi-hole takes over as your network's name server, and silently redirects all web requests to known ad-server addresses to a DNS sinkhole. Everything else is passed upstream to the public DNS server of your choice. Only requests for ads silently fail, and the rest of the page loads as normal. The result is you see fewer ads ｣

Je cherche à bloquer le "explore" de Mastodon parce que j’ai tendance à aller y voir des trucs que je n’ai pas envie de voir.
Vous avez une idée de règle #ublock pour bloquer juste cette partie de mastodon ? (sur mon instance).
Google Chrome blocking Ublock Origin and Violentmonkey as of today. I wonder why.
PSA: This might be interesting for anyone using an ad blocker and is interested in having less bullshit in everyday life.

If you are not running ad blockers on your mobiles and PCs, you are at risk of spying and malware. In the age of fascism, this is more important than ever.
On desktop: uBlock Origin on FireFox or FF based browsers. Hosts file for everything else.
On Android: AdGuard DNS (no root needed). AdAway if you have root.
On iPhone: AdGuard DNS, uBlock in FireFox.
I click a link on a social media site. I land on what appears to be a news site if you stretch the definition enough. Before I get to read anything, it pops up a message with a bleeding heart story of the site needing a lot of work and the expenses are high, please turn off your ad blocker to support quality journalism.
I click the ad blocker offline for the site. My browser immediately asks if I want to download TotallyNotTrojan.exe. I turn the adblocker back on and press the back button. It's the same shit but different day.
Looks like YouTube is blocking adblockers again. This time, they are claiming that the use of adblockers violates its terms of service.
I read the terms of service: https://www.youtube.com/t/terms#20c5cf0fa6 There is nothing in there about adblockers. And yes, I actually read the terms, I didn't just search for 'adblock'; contrary to youtube.com's lies, you are NOT required to disable adblock.
So once again, let's delve into how to watch get around YouTube's adblockerblocker.

@Gargron I wonder if all of this now slop, but eventually "great", AI crap will start pushing people back to using #lynx and the like, or even #gopher. Why bother with images and videos any more when signal-to-noise ratio gets below a certain point.
With browsers we learned to use #adblock and the like, but how to #aiblock?
At this rate the only winning move might be just not to play, and move back to text based tools. Or enjoy your new friends if you never left

I am going to install https://pi-hole.net/ soon on my old RPI 3B+ as a home network filter, especially for the "smart devices".

Wir haben unsere Sammlung an Blocklisten aktualisiert. Vor allem die Adblock und Anti-Tracking Listen sollten allgemein von Interesse sein. Die Listen können in Adblock-Browser-Plugins, PiHole oder Firewallsysteme benutzt werden.
