Hi RJK7,

You can try Firefox Private Network to see if that helps you but, ad blockers like Adblocker Ultimate, Disconnect, UBlock Origin, Ghostery, etc. might be more useful.

Hello RKJ7,

As a woman, I can only assume that you are talking about porn (?)

There are some add-ons that claim to block these sites, but there is only one that actually does what it promises to do :

Then, you may also want to take a look at this article :
