Android phone users may find it useful to know that Firefox for Android works great with uBlock Origin. No more app store popups, audio ads, or sucking down your mobile data.

It's very useful, but I try to encourage everyone I can to root and install a system level adblocker. Not feasible for 100% of people but the more the better.

Can you provide some links about these system level adblockers?
