I honestly think mobile ads in free games and other apps are some of the lowest quality piles of garbage I’ve ever had the misfortune to see, and they are constant. How did we get to this point? Where they are so horribly unbearable and yet so commonplace?

    Alternatively if you have a raspberry pi, pi hole. Also blocks all mobile ads and does it network wide.

      I’d love to, I have a pi 3 lying about.

      Unfortunately it will also block the free TV streaming box we have and Mrs won’t be able to watch Poirot and I’ll get murdered myself

        You can set up a regular dns on that device, or you can white list the domains that the stealing box uses. Join the revolution, it’s actually quite nice!

          Would that it were that simple! It’s an Orange TV streaming box, notorious for fucking up with PiHole :)
