Block annoying ads for free with the most popular extension ever!

Block all annoying ads on all the sites you visit with the most powerful adblocking tool available! Adblock Plus for Chrome automatically removes ads from YouTube, Facebook, news sites and everywhere else! In order to support free content, non-intrusive ads are allowed by default (so you can still block them all if you want).

Adblock Plus for Chrome blocks:video ads on YouTube, Facebook ads, sponsored Tweets, pop-ups, banners and all other obtrusive ads on the web.

Adblock Plus for Chrome also offers extra tools that give you control over your privacy. For instance, you can activate features that block tracking, malware and the social media buttons (e.g. the “like” button) that threaten your personal privacy.

Moreover, the UI has been greatly improved to give you control over your Internet experience. An integrated ad-counter shows how many ads you’re blocking on each page. In addition, the icon now opens a bubble that shows your personal “ad stats” (how many ads have you blocked all-time?), lets you hide specific page elements and enables you to whitelist sites you’d like to support.

The most popular extension ever is used by tens of millions of users everyday. Supported by hundreds of volunteers from all over the world, we make sure that all the intrusive online advertising are blocked automatically.

Adblock Plus is an open source project, which is also available for Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, Safari and for Android. Adblock Plus for Google Chrome blocks annoying ads both on Windows and Mac OS X.

A few years back, we introduced the Acceptable Ads initiative. It aims to support websites that rely on advertising by allowing non-intrusive ads that have gone through our whitelisting process. By allowing some ads, you support websites that depend on advertising but choose to do it in a non-intrusive way. You can disable this feature at any time.
