Is Advanced Ad Blocker safe?
Advanced Ad Blocker fetches remote update data that can inject page elements and replace browser network-blocking rules.
Advanced Ad Blocker contacts advancedadblocker.com for update lists, stores returned per-site rules, and applies them on visited pages through a main-world scriptlet handler. The same update system can replace the browser's dynamic declarativeNetRequest rules for all URLs with rules supplied by the remote netlist.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Advanced adblocker contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
