Apple Approves An App That Blocks Ads In Native Apps

The app claims to block advertisements not only in mobile applications, but also in native mobile apps, including Facebook and even Apple's own News application. To make this work, Been Choice offers a combination of a content blocker for Safari and a VPN service, the latter which allows it to filter out ad traffic using deep packet inspection.
