We all know those times when you want to show your friends, or loved ones a video on youtube and then there is an advert. You would be very lucky to get those ads you can skip after 4 seconds, if you are less lucky, you get that 14 seconds video that you just have to wait for!

Well this could finally be a thing of the past without breaking the bank. One word; Adblock.

Adblock is a portmanteau of the words advert and block, and it means what it looks like, it is a “software” that blocks ads. Some websites actually ask for a premium so that those annoying adverts will stop holding up your entertainment. However, recently many tech companies are researching into making an adblocker to stop them all. This has been slowly introduced into some web browsers and one of these is Opera.

Without futher ado, Opera web browser has cracked it finally. No more adverts on most websites, and with time, we only think this process will be perfected. So go on here, download the new opera browser by choosing your device, install it, turn on adblock, and browse and watch with freedom and peace! At least until websites learn to counter these adblockers.

Update: Websites are fighting hard to make sure they can bypass adblockers. However, so are the adblockers themselves. You might notice it is a continuous battle between the two sides, but all in all, adblockers still work and get updated regularly to give you that stress free browsing, or entertainment!
