Good point. Some ad blockers are security tools, some (like ABP) offer a false sense of security with paid allow-listing, and some are adware, malware, or subscription scams.

The 2 tools I recommend are:

Privacy Badger is simpler but since it's purely focused on tracking it will let more annoyances through.

uBlock Origin does a lot more
