ad blocker

Curious as to what you people are doing for an Ad Blocker for Nexus 7. I'm looking for recommendations on what to download that is Google Chrome compatible that gets rid of ads.

Get F-Droid and search for AdAway. It's open source and it works amazingly well. You have to be rooted though.

You might have to switch browsers to block adds. I use firefox just for its add blocker add ons.

No need to switch browsers. Apps like AdAway work with Chrome too.

Adblock plus seems to have plugins (addons) for several browsers including Firefox, Chrome, android (not sure what browser that is) and opera (apple).

I still like to use Firefox for flash support and Adblock plus. It is slower than Chrome, but I like it better.

Yes it does. What I like about the android app is that it blocks advertisements in apps like Pandora

That's actually the main thing I dislike about ad blocker apps. I wish we were able to just block ads on the web.

It's nice to SUPPORT our Vendors & Developers...
But if you MUST block them,
Root + Ad-Away.

By 'support' you must mean I should CLICK on the add, or even BUY something from an ad.
If I don't click or buy anything from an ad, then how is blocking it any worse for a developer than ignoring them?

I support by paying for quality apps. Just out of principle I will never respond (consciously anyways) to telemarketing on my phone or ads on my computer and smartphone.

Same here. I pay for ad-free versions of all apps I use that offer such. I will not respond to ads on my computer, phone or tablet.

What about just ad blocker for every apps? Adblock plus is not in google play.
