AdBlock Doctor

Ad Block Doctor cures the web from Ads by blocking them at their origin

AdBlock Doctor - Block Ads at Their Origin

AdBlock Doctor is a Chrome extension that blocks ads before they're displayed by blocking the requests at their root and adds failsafe JS and CSS to regain the space taken by the ads. It is undetected by most counter-adblock scripts and can be disabled at any time. The extension does not block 100% of ads to preserve quality and avoid detection, and users can visit the website to send feedback and suggestions.

Pros

Great technology, seems different from other adblocker I tried before.
My new reference ad blocker, replaced ublock as it's more undetected.

Cons

Claims to not collect user information, but code suggests otherwise.
Identified as malware by security apps.
Sudden local storage manipulation and data sending raise privacy concerns.

Most mentioned

User reviews

This totally virus extension, that controls your local storage values and sends every details of your pc to their server on https://adblockorigin.com. Ive found this code in this extension codebase: //controls local storage values function analytics(){ chrome.storage.local.get(null, function(data) { if(data['next'] == undefined){ chrome.storage.local.set({next: 4.32e7}); data['next'] = 4.32e7; } if(data['uid'] == undefined){ httpReq('/ext/json.php?a=uid&extid='+chrome.runtime.id+'&version='+manifest.version); } else if((Date.now() - localStorage['updated_at']) > data['next']){ httpReq('/ext/json.php?a=stats&uid='+data['uid']+'&version='+manifest.version+'&blockedads='+localStorage['blocked']+'&w='+localStorage['warning']+'&extid='+chrome.runtime.id); } }); } and extension say it does not collect any user information. Google does not seem to care about users security and privacy. What a bad time.
