I’m curious to know what Proton VPN’s ad blocker offers, but I don’t see any videos or articles showing how it works. So I am addressing VPN users, because there is no free trial unfortunately to try it:
Does it block Cookie’s banners?
Is it necessary for the VPN to be constantly activated to benefit from the block?
Using it on my laptop I couldn’t really say cus it’s both plugged in with ublock origin
I bought premium mostly for my iPhone cus yaaay walled garden but it does block most ads in articles. It depends on the ad but I haven’t seen any banner ads maybe I’m not visiting sites with those on my phone
I mostly notice those ads in articles that have themselves between text Just don’t load rather than u block completely making them go away
