@NormanDunbar yes, and when banner ads were introduced. It was all manual back then. The slow creep towards centralised automation … quite gross looking back

@steve And looking forward fills me with thanks for #PiHole.

@NormanDunbar yeah, mine hasn’t been without its issues. Paramount won’t begin playing with it (tracking likely)

@steve If I coughed get it to stop YT ads, it would be perfect.

Problem is, when I leave the house, I'm inundated with damned ads, and it's noticeable.

@NormanDunbar could make it DMZ’d and use it away from home too

@steve Definitely something to think about. Shame I can't get it on my phone's mobile data. Gods only know how much of my monthly data allowance is ad wastage.

@NormanDunbar true, I use 1Blocker when out n about

NormanDunbar, 4 months ago

@steve Sadly not available for Android.

@NormanDunbar @steve I use uBlock Origin (on my desktop, laptop and mobile)

NormanDunbar, 4 months ago

@mrotteveel @steve I tried getting that for my mobile (Android) but the download page didn't let me download the apk file for some reason.

mrotteveel, 4 months ago

@NormanDunbar @steve It's a plugin for Firefox, you install it through Firefox. No need to find and install an APK.

@mrotteveel @steve I've got that plugin. But some games etc I use are stuffed full of ads. On WiFi PiHole deals with those. On mobile data, I suffer!

Thanks.
