@be_far retired so I do not have a work browser, my personal browser is Librewolf with all the available addons.

@be_far @Binder qualifying my vote: we can’t add/do any extensions, but the firewall acts like a very effective adblocker, with many if not most ads flagged for their subject or language, all we see in the ad panels is a big old “content restricted” warning.

@be_far I manage the browser and everyone gets uBlock Origin. It is a security control.

@be_far we did briefly use a pihole to block ads for everyone who didn’t use their own ad blocker, but one of the execs clicks on adverts in search results all the time and demanded it be turned off 🫤

Naturally he’s the person who would cause the most chaos should he get malwared. All the admin rights.

@serriadh the proper solution would be to install ublock on specifically that exec’s computer so they never see said results.
