Embrace the power of a pi-hole on your network. Most ads are DNS black holed at the DNS level, as is malware, trackers, and any other variant of internet nefariousness. I use a Rasberry Pi 3b/Rasbian OS as the base, and run Pi-Hole on top.
I've heard a couple people talk about this, but I never figured out how it works. Is there something you program into your router? Do you have to buy something?
I suppose that it depends on your router, but I ended up just buying a Raspberry Pi. It’s actually pretty straight forward. If you can configure a home internet router then you can set up Pi Hole.
Be forewarned that it does not block YouTube ads (which are the bane of my existence).
uBlock, Adblock Plus, and adblocker ultimate. Because there's no kill like overkill when it comes to ads. I see none.
