Description

Introducing CatBlock, an innovative ad-blocking extension that replaces unwanted advertisements with delightful images of cats. This extension can function independently as an ad blocker and is compatible with popular browsers including Google Chrome, Opera, and Mozilla Firefox on desktop. Utilizing the open-source code from AdBlock, we have transformed the ads you typically ignore into charming feline photos! Our team, comprised of seasoned contributors to the original AdBlock project, has leveraged our expertise to create this unique fork. Like its predecessor, CatBlock is fully open-source and adheres to the GNU GPLv3 license. You are welcome to explore our code on GitHub, and we actively monitor our support site for any inquiries or issues you may encounter. Additionally, we have set up a public Discord server where users can join for assistance and community interaction. If you're not a fan of cats, you have the option to customize your experience by choosing any images from Flickr instead! This flexibility ensures that everyone can enjoy a tailored browsing experience.

Description

hBlock is a shell script that complies with POSIX standards, designed to compile a list of domains associated with advertisements, tracking scripts, and malicious software from various sources to create a hosts file, as well as other formats, effectively blocking access to these domains. You can visit our website to download the latest version of the standard blocklist, and you also have the option to create your own blocklist by following the guidelines provided on the project page. By utilizing hBlock, you can enhance your security and privacy by preventing connections to domains that serve ads, tracking, and malware. The tool is accessible through different package managers for easy installation. Furthermore, users have the ability to set a system timer that automatically updates the hosts file with new entries on a regular basis. The default settings of hBlock can be modified using a range of customizable options tailored to your preferences. For those interested, nightly builds of the hosts file and other formats are available on the hBlock website for download. If you find it necessary to disable hBlock temporarily, you can easily generate a hosts file that omits all blocked domains as a quick workaround. This flexibility allows users to maintain control over their browsing experience while still benefiting from enhanced protection.
