Canning it and never look back ?
or use focus[1] instead of safari, it's what's recommended on the "block ads" website[2].

For your home wifi network, look at Pi-Hole[0], a DNS based ad blocker

I'd rather use OpenDNS to block the malware domains than use DNS based ad blocker

i use adblock[0], which while generically named, works phenomenally well. it's a pay app, which is a turnoff for some people, but well worth two dollars to me and is under active development. it uses a local vpn with host based filtering to adblock domains on all apps. the same developer also has a safari plugin adblocker, ADmosphere[1], which is free. alternately, or concurrently, if you prefer safari plugin adblockers, mozilla has one called focus[2], which they've recently expanded into an ephemeral browser that you can easily clear all local data on to avoid tracking. it's handy for one-off searches you don't necessarily want added to tracking network profiles of yourself.
