So if you don't want to be flooded with ads, but still want to support the website, this is a good option.  | 9.0 Infinity New Tab (Pro) offers many features that significantly enhance the browsing experience. In particular, the great possibility of customizing the layout and an integrated AI is a function that we no longer want to miss.

| Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 9.5 Stands AdBlocker is free of charge. For this, the extension offers excellent value for money. Users get comprehensive ad blocking features, with individual options to customize these for themselves too. Winner in this category | 8.5 While the free version offers many features, in our opinion the subscription model might not be ideal for everyone. The Pro and Premium versions offer excellent value for those who need advanced features, but the cost might be a barrier for some users. |

| Security & Privacy Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Security & Privacy' aspect of each extension. | 7.5 While Stand's AdBlocker increases online security by blocking malicious ads and phishing threats, the data collection that Stand's AdBlocker performs could be a problem for users who place a high value on privacy.

However, it could improve by explicitly addressing user rights and third-party data handling. Winner in this category |
