“While we were on a business trip, we were watching a couple of videos on YouTube. After the third video ad interruption, we became upset. Since we had an adblocker on desktop, we were not used to such interruptions anymore. So we went to the Play Store and started to search for adblockers, but all we could find was a book about adblocking, which was not helpful in this situation. So we investigated the topic a bit further. It became clear that Google was removing adblocking applications from the Play Store. We found out that Google was justifying this by citing a paragraph in their terms and conditions that prohibits apps from interfering with the functionality of other apps. So we decided that the only option we had of bringing adblocking to Android was to build our own browser. And here we are. After almost one year of work, we launched the initial version in March 2015 and have since attracted a great deal of attention.”
