Zen is an open-source system-wide ad-blocker and privacy guard for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It works by setting up a proxy that intercepts HTTP requests from all applications and blocks those serving ads, tracking scripts that monitor your behavior, malware, and other unwanted content. By operating at the system level, Zen can protect against threats that browser extensions cannot, such as trackers embedded in desktop applications and operating system components. ...

...Rather than being a single application, it serves as a curated collection of methods that users can apply depending on their environment, including browser extensions, proxy-based approaches, and custom scripts. The project focuses on maintaining functional workarounds for Twitch’s evolving ad delivery system, which frequently changes to counter ad-blocking solutions. It includes experimental scripts that attempt to replace or skip ad segments by forcing the player to retrieve ad-free streams or suppress playback during ad breaks. The repository also provides configuration instructions for tools like uBlock Origin, allowing users to integrate custom filters and scripts into their browsing setup.
