Did you read the link you posted? They block many facebook tracking components but there are some things they aren't touching right now because some website depend on facebook for logins.
- walterbell 7y agoHow can people, who are not using those websites, avoid Facebook tracking on the rest of the web?
- prophesi 7y agoInstall one of the many chromium extensions that block/obfuscate such tracking.
- walterbell 7y agoSadly not an option on iOS, which is the reason for using Brave in the first place.
- prophesi 7y agoHonestly, blocking ads/trackers on mobile has always been a tricky business. You could set up Pi-Hole on your home network. Or see if there's something similar to this on iOS: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/dnsfilter.android/ https://f-droid.org/en/packages/dnsfilter.android/
- beatgammit 7y agoIt's actually one of the reasons I use Android and why I'm looking at alternatives, like Librem 5 and PinePhone. I don't like how Apple doesn't allow competing browser engines on their phones and tablets (only skins that use Safari underneath), and I don't like Google's privacy issues on their phones.
- prophesi 7y agoYeah, I've pre-ordered the Librem 5 for those same reasons. It will likely absolutely pale in comparison to Android/iOS features, but I'm wanting to go full "Off To Be The Wizard" and help develop the lacking apps.
- dymk 7y agoAd blockers have existed on iOS for years. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/wipr/id1030595027 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/wipr/id1030595027
- hombre_fatal 7y ago1Blocker X is probably best in class.
- walterbell 7y agoThanks, it seems much faster than 1BlockerX with Safari. Is there a way to whitelist sites? Brave allows granular blocking on a per-site basis, with a simple in-browser UI on iOS. Do Safari content blockers work with Brave on iOS?
