ADBLOAT
You already pay them in cash. They take the rest in data.
Ad-tech runs a silent subscription on every tab you open — bandwidth, battery, attention, the behavioral fingerprint that feeds trillion-dollar surveillance pipelines hiding behind every “free” website.
Adbloat prints the receipt. 46 live tracker endpoints fired at your actual network, scored by what your defenses stopped, what’s still bleeding through, and the hours and gigabytes per year you’d reclaim once you stop paying.

Load the fixture
We serve a faux news page wired to 46 real ad and tracker endpoints identical to what a production ad-laden homepage fires.
Measure your network
The Resource Timing API records every request: size, duration, protocol. Blocked requests fail in milliseconds. Unblocked ones cascade into more requests.

Bandwidth blocked dominates (50% weight) because tracker bytes reaching your browser is the honest measure of ad-tech impact — it's the actual payload that surveils you and slows the page. Tracker payload prevention counts how many of the ~7 actively-tracking scripts your network stopped. Domain isolation counts each 3rd-party that got to handshake with your browser as a surveillance vector. Load efficiency is a minor kicker for feeling-fast UX.
