Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

Yea, same. Ads have gotten so obnoxious to the point where the freaking FBI considers adblock an essential part of proper internet hygiene.

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.
