Instead of just blocking ads like uBlock, it follows every single ad link that it comes across. This quickly makes trying to track you worthless to advertisers, and in fact may cost them a substantial amount of money due to referral fees.
It's not quite as performant as uBlock since it's doing a lot of work in the background, and over a month of use I did see a few ads slip through, but it works very well overall. Oh and it has an ad wall where you can see a huge collage of every ad it ever clicked on for you, with estimated ad revenue damages.
Thanks for the reply. After reading the home page, I was wondering if it would have a performance impact. It's a fascinating idea. I already use ublock origin myself. I may give this a try.
