  1. Pi-hole is a multi-platform, network-wide ad blocker.
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    Now would be a fun time to mention, there are ways to block advertising without ad blocking plugins. Namely, something that handles your DNS - and if you're up to it, I'd recommend looking into Pi-Hole or its many alternatives.

  2. 2
    Fast and secure, ad and tracker blocking browser.

    • Open Source
    This is a fantastic opportunity to try out the Brave browser. Brave automatically blocks ads, trackers, and cookies. It is basically a faster, less data intensive, private version of Chrome. Plus it has a lot of neat built in features, such as Brave Talk.

  9. A browser extension that clicks on every blocked ad to fight advertising surveillance.
    Totally agree, and instead of using uBlock Origin try Adnausium instead. It's based on uBlock Origin so it still blocks adds for you but it will also click on all the adds in the background to make click tracking meaningless: https://adnauseam.io/.

    Pricing:
    The best solution is to use Pi-Hole, or better yet a device like NextDNS. No need for configuring adblockers on individual devices or browsers.
