About wBlock

A free, open-source ad blocker for Safari on Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Apple Vision Pro. Safari gives ad blockers very little room. Each content blocker gets 150,000 rules and can't touch a page's JavaScript. wBlock ships five of them (750,000 rules) plus a scripts extension for everything a rule can't do. That covers scriptlets, cosmetic filters, userscripts and userstyles, an element zapper, and native video players for YouTube and most other sites.
