ad blockers have been specially developed for this, usually they are supplied as extensions (add-ons) for the browser. Such extensions are developed by third-party developers, as browser developers do not offer any solutions for blocking ads. More precisely, it was not offered until some time.

Currently, browsers are improving, functions for partial or complete ad blocking are built into them. Ad-Blocking Browsers are gaining in popularity, so the need for extensions may soon disappear, which could bankrupt extension developers. But until those times have come, blockers are still actively used, possibly due to the greater functionality. In addition, some browsers base their ad blocking functions on solutions from third-party developers of these same ad blockers, because such developers have a lot of experience in this area.
