Thank you! I guess the main problem is figuring out which elements are ads. Blocking certain requests is a handy way to do that, at least for as long as external ad servers are the norm.
> Simple injected Javascript can't e.g. undo requests (from other scripts or just normal resources like third-party images)
But could you detect the request, see what element it loaded in, and then hide that element? Or is that much more complicated than I'm imagining?
