Is your ad blocker detectable?

Most ad blockers stop ads but the blocking itself is visible to websites. Anti-adblock systems exploit this visibility to detect you and then hide content or ask you to disable your blocker. This test checks, in your browser, whether your setup leaves detectable traces.

100% private: every check runs locally in your browser. Nothing is sent to any server, nothing is saved. We do not even know you ran it.

Block ads without being detected

AdOff blocks banners, pop-ups, trackers and video ads, and its Stealth technology hides the blocking so websites cannot tell you use an ad blocker. No anti-adblock walls, no pushy messages.

Blocking ads is not the same as being invisible

There are two very different things an ad blocker can do. The first is block: prevent ads from loading or hide them on the page. Almost all blockers do this. The second is stay invisible: make sure the website cannot tell a block happened. Very few blockers do this.

The test above runs the same kind of probes that anti-adblock scripts use: it plants a bait ad element on the page and checks if it gets hidden, and tries to load known ad network resources and checks if they get stopped. If your blocker reacts to these probes in a measurable way, a website can detect it, and that is exactly what triggers the "disable your ad blocker" walls.

AdOff's Stealth mode does the opposite. It blocks at the network and cosmetic level and fakes the signals that anti-adblock systems look for, so the probes come back perfectly normal. Ads vanish; the website sees nothing amiss.

Does this test send my data somewhere?

No. Every check runs entirely in your browser via local probes on the DOM and network. No results, no IP, nothing is transmitted or saved. The page works the same way offline too.

Why is my ad blocker showing as detectable?

Because it blocks ads in a visible way: it removes bait elements and stops ad requests, and websites can measure both. This is normal for most blockers—it is the trade-off between blocking and being invisible. Blockers with stealth capability avoid leaving those traces.

What is the best ad blocker that avoids detection?

AdOff is built for this: network-level blocking plus a stealth layer that beats anti-adblock walls, so you block ads without websites knowing. It is lightweight, privacy-first and free with a 15 days of free trial trial.
