## What it is
AdGuard Extra is a userscript and browser extension that combats ad-blocking circumvention on sites where regular filter rules fail. It works as a companion to a full ad blocker like AdGuard and only affects a specific list of problematic websites.

## Use cases
- block ads on sites that detect ad blockers
- bypass anti-adblock scripts
- companion extension for my ad blocker
- install a userscript to fight ad reinsertion
- fix broken sites caused by adblock circumvention

## When to choose
- you already use AdGuard or another ad blocker and specific sites still show ads or break
- you want a low-maintenance companion that updates against frequently changing circumvention scripts

## When to avoid
- you have no ad blocker installed, since it is not a standalone blocker
- you expect a general-purpose ad blocker or a user interface - it has none and only works on a limited site list

## Facets
