Just tried to download something on a friends computer. I had no idea there were that many fucking pop ups, re-directs, even fake fucking down loads, not to mention of course the top and side of the page being nothing but porn.
For any one who still sees any of that shit: you don't need to! My setup is Firefox with Ghostery, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin , and NoScript Security Suit (and Bypass Paywalls Clean, usefull but not security related) . Nothing will track you and you'll never see another ad.
Edit: Got back to my computer. Forgot I don't use NoScript anymore, it's not needed with the others and can make some websites really janky.

yeah I know there's some overlap with those extensions but they don't interfere with each other so no reason not to run all of them.
It tracks what ads get blocked and sells that data to advertisers. Ublock origin completely supersedes it.
:agony-minion: lmao did not know that about ghostery
something something The oppressed, instead of striving for liberation, tend themselves to become oppressors
