What is Surfshark CleanWeb and how does it work?

Surfshark CleanWeb is an ad-blocking and online tracking prevention feature that is included in the Surfshark VPN service. It works by creating a secure, encrypted connection to the internet through Surfshark's servers, which then filter out unwanted ads, trackers, and malicious websites. When activated, CleanWeb scrutinizes the websites and content requests made by the user against a constantly updated database of known ad services, tracking scripts, and phishing attempts. By intercepting these unwanted elements before they reach the user's device, CleanWeb enhances browsing speed, improves privacy by preventing trackers from collecting user data, and provides an additional layer of security by blocking potentially harmful websites. This ensures a cleaner and safer browsing experience without intrusive ads and threats to personal data.
