Protect: filter out inappropriate ads

Antishock is an extension for Yandex Browser that filters out banners containing unpleasant images, pornography, and ads for sites that may offer fraudulent services.

What ads get filtered out?

Antishock considers the following types of banners to be harmful or shocking:

  • Erotic and pornographic ads
    Banners with erotic or pornographic images or ads for "adult" sites. These ads are blocked on all websites except those where they match the resource subject.

  • Aggressive and shocking ads
    Banners with graphic images of disasters, survivors of violence, creepy characters from horror movies, worms and parasites, diseases and deformities, infected organs and ulcers, and grossly obese people. Close-up drawings and photos of private parts and childbirth. Ads with messages about the death of celebrities or predicting the end of the world.

  • Intrusive and annoying ads
    Animated flashing banners. Windows and tabs with ads that appear when clicking a video or an empty space on the page, or when trying to close ads.

  • SMS fraud advertising
    Banners that advertise sites related to SMS fraud or imitate social media messages. Banners promising lottery winnings, prizes for a milestone website visitor, access to a declassified database of personal information or the ability to delete your information from it, predictions, and so on.

  • Dubious banners
    Banners made to look like windows or other interface elements of the browser. Fake messages about your computer being infected or updates for installed programs. Banners that promise money-making opportunities without explaining how. Suspicious ads offering treatment for diseases, rejuvenation, or weight loss without indicating medications, treatment method, or clinic. Banners advertising celebrity diets, especially if they contain compromising images.

If a banner ad does not appear shocking but leads to a page with shocking content, Antishock considers it harmful and blocks the ad source.
