Adblockers must be part of AV software

submitted by Conspirologist to technology 8 monthsAug 15, 2024 14:14:47 ago (+2/-2)     (technology)

When I didn't know about adblockers, my computer got infected several times by malware from malicious ads on socials. My AV was unable to stop them. After I've got an adblocker, I'm free from malware from shady ads. Adblockers must be considered serious AV software like AV are.

Ad blockers have been essential since they became a thing in the mid 2000s. AV software is useless these days and are malware and spyware themselves.

And changing to a Adblocking DNS is a scam.
