Adverts in Google Chrome

[Olliesaurus]

Hi all,

 

How are you all managing adverts in Google Chrome?

 

Having an influx of resources having cheeky underwear adverts on and its becoming a bit of a problem, little hesitant to deploy Adblocker throughout the school and our County provided filtering obviously isn't blocking them either!

 

Any hints or tips?

 

Thanks

If you use G suite - force them to sign into Chrome by group policy and then they won't get any ads in things like a Google search as G Suite accounts don't have adverts. If its other sites you can block by pushing an adblocker - so we push uBlock Origin.

I push ublock origin too.

Thanks, looking into deploying these changes now!

This has been happening to a few users recently too, (unsavoury) pop up adverts in the bottom right area of Chrome browser. Was associated with Notifications

Chrome > Settings > Advanced > Privacy and Security > Content Settings > Notifications - You'll find the suspect advert(s) under Allow (Either Remove or Block)

 

This can also be centrally configured via Chrome ADMX
