If you block ads from loading, you are using less processing power and thus less energy. Everyone should make the green choice of adding adblock to every browser. Save the planet.

That isn't hostile enough, AdNauseam clicks them in the background.

I'm not sure I agree with that approach though. I get that the goal is to cost the advertisers money without benefit, but I kinda feel like contributing to that system at all is just encouraging them to do it more.

NextDNS at the front in the router. Adblockerwon all browsers. SmartTube on the TV. Sponsor Block add-ons. What ads? The ads I ever manage to get are very non-intrusive and don't interfere with my browsing experience.
