    And remember, if the page actually had useful content that wasn’t click bait or some shit. Be nice… remove the adblocker and reload.

    They gotta pay bills too, having infrastructure deployed to serve content is not free. Don’t kill their business if they have quality content.

      It’s their prerogative to refuse serving. It’s my prerogative to go somewhere else. Adblocker stays up, sorry.

        And where is that somewhere else? If everyone asks to disable the adblocker, then you’re pretty much denied that info.

      If it’s an understandable amount of ads, I’ll disable ad block. If the site bombards me with an unjustifiable amount of ads (like adblock-tester level of ads) then I’ll re enable adblock in seconds. Same goes for if they serve scam ads like those ‘virus detected’ or ‘hot singles in your area’ malvertisements

      I have no problem paying if I have the option. If they want more than it’s worth, buh bye… If not I’ll pay. What I don’t need is being forced to swallow their pollution to get access to needed information.
