- Additional information
- AdGraph provides in-depth instrumentation of a browser and can be used to improve quality of ad blocking by automatically generating block lists. AdGraph is implemented as a modification to Chromium in the Brave browser (brave.com) with millions of users (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brave_(web_browser)). Several projects use AdGraph to improve the quality of blocking, reduce the amount of breakage, to develop block lists for regions when they do not exist, etc.
