How It Works

Blocking Ads

The extension blocks ads by listening to network requests using the chrome.webRequest or browser.webRequest API and intercepting any requests that match known ad URLs or patterns in the filter lists.

Filter Lists

By default, AdBlocker Ultimate includes a small set of built-in ad filters for common ad-serving domains (e.g., doubleclick.net, adservice.google.com). You can also load external filter lists dynamically (like EasyList) to extend the ad-blocking capabilities.
