Firefox does already have some tracker blocking built in, though it would be fantastic to import arbitrary filter lists.

Chrome & Safari are operated by advertising/surveillance companies, so no dice there.

Safari (desktop and mobile) also has tracker blocking built in. "Prevent cross-site tracking" and "Hide IP address from trackers" are two settings it has; I think the first is checked by default, I don't remember about the other.

In the DevTools network pane, it shows requests to known trackers, like Google Tag Manager, being blocked.
