Mac users: what are you all using for ad blocking? Shocking confession: I haven’t really used one since SetApp got rid of AdGuard last year for its supposed Russian connections. As I recall, the software they offered in its place, AdLock, demanded a level of permissions that I wasn’t comfortable with. But man, I’m sick of the ads. I’ve tried subscribing to rules in LittleSnitch, but they end up blocking so many links I keep ending up turning it off and forgetting to turn it on again.
