AdShredder: Open Source Ad Blocker

Blocks ads and trackers for real. 100% free and open source. No paid whitelists, no accounts, no data collection.

AdShredder blocks ads and trackers. That's it. No catch. Most popular ad blockers are now owned by ad companies or let "acceptable ads" through for a fee. AdShredder doesn't. It is free, open source, and has no business model that depends on showing you ads. WHAT IT DOES - Blocks ads before they load - Blocks trackers and analytics scripts - Hides leftover ad boxes and banners - Optional: removes cookie banners, popups, and social widgets - Shows how many things were blocked on each page WHAT IT DOESN'T DO - No "acceptable ads" whitelist - No accounts or sign-ups - No data collection, analytics, or telemetry - No premium tier OPEN SOURCE All of the code is public. Filter lists come from the community-run EasyList project. SIMPLE MENU - One switch to turn it on or off - Pause on any site that breaks - Choose which filter lists to use Created by Jordan Lee.
