[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 92963, post: 971368"] Sorry had not noticed your post, here is my late answer. It depends on the websites you are visiting. For most websites it is far more efficient (in terms of money, IT-resources and learning curves and availability of digital marketeers to operate those advertising platforms) to use a well-known third-party who also provides open course education (like Google, facebook, Hubspot, etc) and leverage their presence with multi-site serving ad bidding systems. Only for relatively dedicated customer scenes websites* (e.g. adult websites, dating and cam-services) it might be feasible to use own or dedicated adserving platforms. As far as I known, the adult business has matured also (meaning websites with different content and names have the same owner and therefor can share a propriety publishing and advertising platform. I think that only the adult business is (money wise) big enough to develop their own adserving platform. Ironically adult websites were the driving power behind internet usage and innovation (so it is more likely the systems developed for adult websites, were the basis for the advertising platforms we see now). As far as I know AdGuard also includes the most used advertising platforms of the adult industry. I have copied LennyFox blocklist [URL='https://github.com/LennyFox/Blocklists/blob/master/Block%20porn%20ad%20networks'](link[/URL]) dedicated blocklist for adult advertising services in my list. When I checked LennyFox's blocklist (he made for his brother he always told me :) ) against EasyList more than 50 percent of the domains mentioned in his list were not present in EL, for fun I checked his list against Adguard optimized AG-base + EL and noticed that all except three or four were blockd by AG optimized. So I would say NO, the most efficient largelist approach (in terms of block percentage vs number of rules) IMO still is (by far): - AG optimized Base +EasyList ([URL='https://filters.adtidy.org/extension/ublock/filters/2_optimized.txt']link[/URL]) - AG optimized TrackingProtection and EasyPrivacy ([URL='https://filters.adtidy.org/extension/ublock/filters/3_optimized.txt']link[/URL]) - AG remove URL tracking parameters ([URL='https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AdguardTeam/FiltersRegistry/master/filters/filter_17_TrackParam/filter.txt']link[/URL]) - your country specific EL or AG blocklist *) dedicated customer scene: meaning most wide audience products/services have no business or do not want to advertise on those websites (e.g. Nespresso probably does not want to advertise on a adult website) [/QUOTE]
