Ask HN: How do you block ads and trackers on iOS these days?

2 points by wunderwaffe 8y ago ↗ HN

Now that Apple allows content blocking in Safari/iOS - what is a good way to do it? I don't want to install some random adblocker app and then that app will track me even more. How do you guys do it?

Install Firefox Focus. It has content blocker which cleans up ads and trackers on mobile safari.

Safari content blockers explicitly can't track you - they dont contain active code they provide a series of rules in a json blob.

I personally use 1blocker on iOS and macOS. Ive also written some 1blocker packages (custom rules that can be distributed) - https://bitbucket.org/stephenreay/1blocker-packages
