PC Matic Ad Blockers and You

What Are They

Ad blockers are a great way to declutter webpages. Have you ever clicked on a Pinterest recipe or a sports headline only to have to scroll through endless ads to get to the content you want? An ad blocker clears all of those for you.

There’s another advantage to using ad blockers. Occasionally, hackers embed malicious code in links. There’s a good chance these links end up in ads on a site. An ad blocker can keep you safe from these.

But sometimes you need to disable ad blockers. There are several sites that rely on the revenue they receive from ads to run. Having an ad blocker that turns off and on with ease can make browsing the web simple.

Take a look at the video below from PC Matic University to learn about the PC Matic ad blocker and how to turn it off and on.
