## Useful for

- Install the ad blocker on a Windows desktop for offline or isolated environments
- Add custom filter rules to block specific domains or element selectors
- Check the local log to verify blocked requests and diagnose false positives

## Why it’s here

- There are not enough fresh counter measurements for today's UTC day. The gain is unknown.
- The repository is 5 days old and already has 2 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 0
- Issues and pull requests: 0

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
