An advertisement is the promotion of a product, brand or service to a viewership in order to attract interest, engagement and sales. Advertisements come in many forms, from copy to interactive video, and have evolved to become a crucial feature of the app marketplace. An advertisement is different from other types of marketing because it is paid for, and because the creator of an advert has total control over the content and message.

Let's go to the settings to block this!


#1) First you need to install WSL on your Windows and keep your WSL kernel on the latest version;

#2) Next step, go to docker.com and download the free community version of docker desktop;


To install adblocker you need to use this command:

docker run -d --name pihole -e ServerIP=your-ip -e WEBPASSWORD=your-password -e DNS1=127.0.0.1 -e DNS2=1.1.1.1 -e DNS3=9.9.9.9 -p 80:80 -p 53:53/tcp -p 53:53/udp -p 443:443 --restart=unless-stopped pihole/pihole:latest

#3) Before that, you need to setup a static IP address for your Windows computer;


#4) Insert you IP address and set a password on the command above and paste on your CMD;

#5) open localhost on your browser;

#6) Login with your new password - as you set on the command line above;


#7) Return on your TCP proprieties and change your DNS setting - type your IP address;

#8) Go to your router settings and setup your DNS as well;

And after using this steps, the ADS have been completely blocked!
