It is bizarre, isn't it? My web experience has been broadly cleansed of ads for about as long as we've had a web to experience.

These days, Firefox on Android indeed works great, and so does uBlock Origin. It's a superb combination on the desktop, and also on my pocket supercomputer.

On iOS, I browse with Safari and the free AdGuard extension (from the app store) does quite well.

These mobile browsers even work well for watching videos on Youtube without inserted ads.

They accomplish this cleansing at the cost of at most a few minutes of my time to set them up when a new device comes into the mix. It's a fantastic bargain.

People have choices, and I don't know why anyone would choose to see ads.
