Like a certain horse...
I don't have an ad blocker in my browser. I am still learning iOS, and I'm not even sure I could get an ad blocker for Safari.
What I *do* have is a #VPN that claims it's blocked 200+ ads today. And I'm not turning it off.

Beam me home, Scotty
Warum evaluiere ich das hier (https://blog.kendoo.party/reiserouter/) überhaupt?

A great article on how to start worrying about your #privacy & data.
There is SO much going on, and the #surveillance machine is already so huge it can seem overwhelming, but it's simple to get started.
Use a privacy respecting browser (Brave/Firefox) get a GOOD #VPN (#Proton/Mullvad)
Use apps that don't collect all your data (signal instead of whatsapp etc.)
The article has a LOT more advice, detailed info, and answers some common questions.
It's worth a read.

VPN? Internet connection flows via proxy server (can be chosen specifically *which country* too) offering also more privacy in comparison to a regular connection.
Many use VPN for example to circumvent geo-blocking in entertainment services; resulting for more content.
NordVPN has been tested several times to prove their NO-LOG policy.
