Should be both that the ads don't get in and no ad related traffic gets out.
I'm inclined to believe the multiple parties that have said that adblockers protect you from PPA.
Logic being that blocker won't led the ad load?
So nothing to track?
Won't let it load, so there's nothing to send and even if something loads it will be blocked like when you try and visit a site in your blocklist.
Ublock is not 100% tho so there would still be some leakage tho?
According to the technical lead at Mozilla, there's no leakage.
