How to remove Adguard

catfishsushi

I fixed my XFCE issue by installing KDE, which is working well. I installed the 2 versions of Vivaldi, the full, and the 'snapshot'. Wanting to put an adblocker on it, i went to the adgaurd site and saw instructions for how to install it on Linux, I copied and pasted the line of code into the konsole/terminal and it accepted it. i then attempted to use Vivaldi, but it hangs forever and will not 'talk' to the network. I attempted to remove it using "sudo rm curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardCLI/release/install.sh | sh -s – -v "
and that returns an error, "rm: invalid option -- 's' " any help on how to remove that from the OS without having to reinstall again ?

Always search the their docs first. Also better ask them (Adguard devs) directly, it is paid software afterall.

I'm glad your problem is solved.

Regarding the browser: There's no need to use the snapshot. The stable version runs perfectly and is updated promptly via cherry-picking.
Vivaldi also has a great integrated ad and tracker blocker.

I wouldn't experiment or install anything at the OS level.
If anything, configure a filtering (but not logging) DNS server at the router's perimeter edge.
For example...
