Description
Detects and blocks fake ads (e.g. fake "as seen on TV" ads) based on community reports. FakeAd Radar exposes fake ads – such as fake “as seen on TV” ads with made-up celebrity quotes, miracle cures or crypto tricks. How it works • Every detected ad gets a “Fake?” button in the top left. One click reports it. • The more users report an ad, the redder and more opaque its cover becomes. • “It’s genuine” votes count against it. Verified advertisers are never blocked. • Report via right-click on an ad link too – e.g. on social media. • No setup, no account: reports are shared with all users automatically. • Set the threshold and your own trusted domains in the popup. • Available in 9 languages, follows your browser language. Privacy • No names, emails, GPS data or browsing history. • Only reported ads, a random installation ID, language/time zone and a hashed IP value (against abuse) are stored.
