ublock won't help with SEO spam - it doesn't filter out native search results, just the ads. So it isn't really SEO spam, it's adword spam.

- lb4r 4y agoIt can filter out native search results as well, as long as you tell it what to filter out. It's of course a bit limited since you have to know beforehand what you don't want to see, but it works great if you're looking to, for example, filter out specific websites.
- eptcyka 4y agoIt can, but I don't know of any default filters that would do such a thing, and that is besides the point. It certainly doesn't have enough time to classify a particular entry as SEO spam without doing RPC to an external service, IMO.
- martinald 4y agoThis is a really good point and something I didn't quite think through. Problem is now you get ~6 ad links for many queries (given some ads have 'secondary links' in them). This now means even on a 4k monitor I only see 3 actual SEO results. It's much worse on mobile.
