Cleaner Browsing, Fewer ADS. Blocks ads, trackers, video ads, popups, ghost links, cookie banners and anti-adblock walls. PowerBlock gives you a cleaner, faster, quieter web. It blocks ads, trackers, video ads and pop-ups on every site automatically, with no setup. WHAT IT BLOCKS • Ads: banner, native and sponsored ads, using over 100,000 community-maintained filters (EasyList, uBlock Origin filters, Peter Lowe's list) • Video ads: pre-roll and mid-roll ads in web video players, plus YouTube ads • Trackers: analytics beacons, tracking pixels and fingerprinting scripts (EasyPrivacy) • Pop-ups and pop-unders: new windows and tabs opened by click hijackers • Malware and scams: known phishing, scam and crypto-mining domains PROTECTION OTHER BLOCKERS SKIP • Ghost link shield: removes invisible full-page links and see-through overlays that turn any click into an ad, and passes your click to what you actually see • Link hijack protection: if a page swaps a link the moment you click it, PowerBlock takes you to the real destination • Clean links: strips tracking tags (utm_, fbclid, gclid and others) and unwraps redirect links FEWER ANNOYANCES • Cookie banners: hidden, and "Reject all" is clicked for you when the site offers it • "Please disable your ad blocker" walls, newsletter pop-ups and "open in app" banners • Leftover dark overlays removed, and page scrolling re-enabled • Notification permission prompts denied automatically • Optional: stop videos that start playing on their own YOU'RE IN CONTROL • Pause on any site for 1 hour, 24 hours or always, to support sites you like • Element picker: right-click anything and choose "Block this element…" • Write your own filters in Adblock Plus / uBlock syntax • Dashboard showing what was blocked, a 30-day chart, and estimated time and data saved • Light and dark mode, keyboard shortcuts, settings backup and restore PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything runs on your device. PowerBlock has no servers, no accounts and no analytics, and never sends your browsing data anywhere.
