What is Adblock in Comet?

Adblock is a built-in feature that automatically blocks intrusive ads and trackers while you browse, leading to a cleaner, faster, and more private web experience.

How does the Adblock feature work?

Comet’s Adblock is powered by an open-source solution that maintains regularly updated block lists to filter out most ads and tracking scripts on websites you visit.

How do I enable or adjust the Adblock settings?

  • Go to Settings → Privacy → Blocking.

  • Toggle Adblock on or off according to your preference.

  • You can also manage exceptions, allowing ads on specific websites if needed.

Can I customize which sites show or hide ads?

Yes! You can add sites to an exceptions list in the Adblock settings, so those trusted sites can continue displaying ads if you choose.

What are the benefits of using Adblock?

  • Faster browsing: Pages load more quickly without ad content.

  • Less clutter: Reduces distracting banners and pop-ups.

  • More privacy: Blocks many trackers that collect browsing data.

  • Fewer interruptions: Enjoy a smoother, more focused web experience.

Is my Adblock experience kept up to date?

Yes, because Comet’s Adblock uses community-driven, open-source filter lists that are automatically updated to cover new ad techniques.
