Install Firefox with https://adnauseam.io/, it’s basically ublock origin but internally clicks on every add destroying your adds profile and damaging economics of adds and conversion.

Doesn’t this just track the shit out of you? Does it also click malicious ad banners?

Well, it anonymizes you by “faking” the tracking. I would hope it takes steps to sandbox the ads.

What does it fake about the tracking? The tracking is very real and the tool is clicking every tracking link available on the site like its life depends on it
