What it blocks:

• YouTube ads: pre-roll, mid-roll, overlay, Shorts ads

9-layer stealth engine: Most ad blockers get caught by anti-adblock detection. ShieldBrowse does not. Our stealth engine neutralizes FuckAdBlock, BlockAdBlock, Admiral, PageFair, and every known detection method before the site's scripts even load.

Reader Mode: Extracts article content and renders it in a clean distraction-free view with automatic dark mode. Keyboard shortcut: Alt+Shift+R.

Privacy first: Zero data collection. No account required. No acceptable ads program. Everything runs locally in your browser. Open source under MIT License.
