Starting with Adblock 0.4, in early 2003, the development of Adblock was taken over by rue. This was also the last stable release of Adblock. Sørensen maintained the open source project until Adblock 0.3 after which the project changed hands. It hid image ads through user-defined filters from the page but did not actually prevent them from being downloaded.
Adblock plus software#
The original version of Adblock (0.1) was written as a side project for Firefox by Danish software developer Henrik Aasted Sørensen, a university student at the time, in 2002.
In 2011, Adblock Plus and Eyeo attracted considerable controversy over its "Acceptable Ads" program to "allow certain non-intrusive ads" (such as Google AdWords) to be allowed under the extension's default settings. The extension has been released for Mozilla Firefox (including mobile ), Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge ( Chromium based version), Opera, Safari, Yandex Browser, and Android. It is developed by developer Wladimir Palant's Eyeo GmbH, a German software company.
