quote [ More and more sites are putting mechanisms in place to foil Ad Blockers. While many only use a "shame banner" it is getting to the point where you can get to content without disabling the tool. ]
The ones that annoyed me the most were eCommerce sites - Best Buy being the example that comes to mind. The very purpose of the ENTIRE. FUCKING. SITE. is to sell me something. I am going there looking for specific things I am interested in. Why the fuck do they insist on having additional advertising?!?

Oh, no, don't worry about it. I mostly use it to get a feel for where our non-user views are coming from.

I can only describe the experience as awful. Sites that I have visited daily, which did have minimal advertising shown, are suddenly crowded with garbage, some based on Amazon searches, some based on some alternate reality where I give a shit about wrinkles, grey hair and the Kardashians.
Crowded to the point where I had to make an effort to find the actual content.
