"which blocks more ads? Answer: uBlock/Adblock" by andymadigan (792996) on Sunday June 14, 2015 @12:04AM (#49907001)

WRONG - "Almost ALL Ads Blocked"'s PAID NOT TO by default-> http://techcrunch.com/2013/07/...

UBlock/Adblock = far less efficient on CPU & RAM (added messagepassing, SLOW usermode vs. hosts in kernelmode) & NEITHER does a fraction of what hosts do in more speed, security, reliability, & anonymity.

You obviously didn't read my post! All of the browsers have 64-bit versions but they have bugs that don't exist in the 32-bit version and don't offer any benefit over the 32-bit version. So people end up using the 32-bit installs. In fact it was only in September of this year that Mozilla considered Firefox 64 to be *stable*. If you started with a 32-bit Firefox, the update tools don't switch you to 64-bit. This isn't about whether 64-bit builds *exist* it's whether people *use* them. And the research showed that 80% of people running 64-bit OS use 32-bit browsers. The default for Windows 7 was 32-bit IE. http://www.ghacks.net/2015/07/...

AdBlock+ = inferior & 'souled-out' vs. hosts by Anonymous Coward · 2015-10-22 12:53 · Score: 0 · on Google Wants Online Ad Improvement Within Months, Not Years (wsj.com)

Can adblock+ do 16 things hosts do 4 speed, security & reliability:

1.) Protect vs. bad sites (past ads)
2.) Protect vs. fastflux botnets + stop C&C talk
3.) Protect vs. dynamic dns botnets + stop C&C talk
4.) Protect vs. DGA botnets + stop C&C talk
5.) Protect vs. downed DNS (4 reliability)
6.) Protect vs. DNS redirect poisoning
7.) Protect vs. trackers
8.) Protect vs. spam
9.) Protect vs. phish
10.) Protect vs. caps
11.) Get you past dns blocks
12.) Keep you off dns request logs
13.) Speed up surfing (adblocks & hardcoded fav. sites)
14.) Work on anything webbound multiplatform.
15.) Easy data control
16.) Do all that & block ads better vs. addons more efficiently in cpu cycles + memory usage

* ANSWER ="NO" on ab+ doing it as well or @ ALL + hosts = on devices natively.

APK

P.S.=> Ab+ does less vs. hosts less efficiently - hosts do MORE w/ less + Hosts start w/ IP stack before REDUNDANT inefficient addons BEGIN operation (as 1st resolver).

Ab+'s a 128-151mb memory hog http://cdn.ghacks.net/wp-conte... (hosts use 3-11mb w/ my program initially). Even FireFox 41 adblock eats 65++mb http://www.ghacks.net/2015/06/...

ClarityRay defeats it seeing addons used via native browser methods!

Ab+'s bribed not to work by default http://www.businessinsider.com... & ABP bought out adblock http://www.theregister.co.uk/2...

Ab+ adds complexity in slower usermode (w/ more messagepassing overhead + context switch vs. hosts in kernelmode).
