How do I block these stupid ads?

How do I block ads on Android without root?

• I understand that Ads support the developers behind the apps but sometimes, these ads distract you when you're playing a game, blink and flash when you're simply trying to browse the Web, and eat up the little bit of data available on your not-so-unlimited data plan. I went through a reliable method (which I use for PC as well) of ‘hosts’ file to block ads. This method blocks all ads in your device, including the ones shown in various apps and games. There are apps out there for doing this but work only for rooted devices. I was wondering if there's any way to do that without root access.
