How to block ads in yahoo mail

There are a few ways to block ads in Yahoo Mail:

Method 1: Using Yahoo's built-in ad-blocking feature

  1. Log in to your Yahoo Mail account.
  2. Click on the gear icon () in the top right corner of the page.
  3. Select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
  4. Scroll down to the "Advertisements" section.
  5. Toggle the switch next to "Block ads" to the "On" position.

Method 2: Using a browser extension

  1. Install an ad-blocking browser extension, such as:
    • uBlock Origin (available for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge)
    • AdBlock Plus (available for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge)
    • Ghostery (available for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge)
  2. Once installed, restart your browser.
  3. The ad-blocking extension will automatically block ads in Yahoo Mail.

Method 3: Using a third-party ad-blocking service

  1. Sign up for a third-party ad-blocking service, such as:
    • Adblock (available for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge)
    • AdGuard (available for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge)
  2. Follow the service's instructions to install the ad-blocking software.
  3. The service will block ads in Yahoo Mail and other websites.

Method 4: Using a VPN

  1. Install a Virtual Private Network (VPN) on your device.
  2. Connect to a VPN server.
  3. The VPN will encrypt your internet traffic and block ads in Yahoo Mail and other websites.

Note: Some of these methods may not work if Yahoo Mail uses a different ad-serving network or if the ads are served through a different domain.

It's also worth noting that while these methods can block ads, they may not completely eliminate all ads from Yahoo Mail. Additionally, some ads may be served through other means, such as embedded content or sponsored content, which may not be blocked by these methods.
