Some websites get sneaky: if they detect an ad blocker, they hide their content. uBlock Origin is the browser extension that solves this problem.
uBlock Origin is not an “ad blocker”:It's a wide-spectrum blocker—which happens to work as an ad blocker. Out of the box, uBlock Origin blocks ads, trackers, and malware sites usingEasyList,EasyPrivacy,Peter Lowe’s ad/tracking/malware servers,Online Malicious URL Blocklist, and uBlock Origin’sown filter lists.

Philosophy
uBlock Origin (or uBlock₀) is not an ad blocker; it's a general-purpose blocker. uBlock Origin blocks ads through its support forAdblock Plus filter syntax. uBlock Originextends the syntax and is designed for use with custom rules and filters. Additionally, advanced mode lets uBlock Origin work indefault-deny mode, which causesall third-party network requests to be blocked by default unless the user allows them.
That said, it's important to note that using a blocker is not theft. Don't fall for that creepy idea. The logical conclusion ofblocking = theft criminalizes the inalienable right to privacy.
Ads, whether “non-intrusive” or not, are just the visible part of the privacy-invading apparatus that enters your browser when you visit most websites today. uBlock Origin’s main goal is to help users eliminate that privacy-invading apparatus—in a way that welcomes users who don't want more technical, involved tools likeuMatrix.
EasyList,EasyPrivacy,Peter Lowe’s,Online Malicious URL Blocklist, and uBO’s own lists are enabled by default when you install uBlock Origin. Many more lists are available to block trackers, analytics, and more. Hosts files are also supported.
After installing uBlock Origin, if you think it blocks too much, you can easily deselect any pre-selected filter lists. For reference, Adblock Plus installs with onlyEasyList,ABP filters, andAcceptable Ads enabled by default.
