    It’s a global solution, not just localized to specific areas. No ads on my account on my Xbox, PS5, Switch, Google Home speakers (YouTube Music), Fire TV Stick, Android TV, Roku, my roommate’s Roku, or anyone else’s devices anywhere else, in addition to places like my phone and PC where I just use uBlock Origin.

    In addition, I’m actually just splitting the family plan across three people, so it’s like $7.64/mo, which isn’t bad.

      Yeah with that many devices that’s worth the ease of use for the price. I’m surprised they don’t block more than one device.
