    Can’t install extensions on a work machine but you can add a network wide blocker?

        Wouldn’t a company VPN bypass all that even though you are using your own internet connection to connect to the outside world?

          Maybe, I guess I don’t know enough to answer that. I do know that being on a company VPN isn’t always a requirement, though.

          Either way, I’m not trying to argue for one approach to ad blocking over another as a one-size-fits-all solution, I just wanted to point out that it’s possible to have more control over the network than the computer in some cases.
