How to block ads on news sites
Clean up ad-heavy news sites — pop-ups, interstitials, sticky videos and paywall nags.
News homepages are some of the worst-offending ad experiences on the web: pop-ups, sticky videos, full-screen interstitials and cookie nags stacked on top of each other. NovaBlock removes all of them and includes a cookie-banner module so you don't accept anything.
What NovaBlock removes on news sites
- Full-page interstitial ads on article load
- Sticky auto-playing video players in the corner
- Newsletter and app-install pop-ups
- Cookie consent banners (dedicated module)
- Comment-section and sidebar ad slots
Setup in under a minute
- Install NovaBlock from the Chrome Web Store.
- Visit any news site — no cookie banner, no pop-ups, no sticky video.
Frequently asked questions
Does this break paywalls?+
No. NovaBlock blocks ads and trackers, not subscription checks. Paywalled articles remain paywalled.
Can I still see the cookie preferences if I want to?+
Yes. Disable the cookie-banner module on that site from NovaBlock's popup.
