![]() The new version of the extension will not use background images on web pages as the best candidate in the Element Picker mode. It is labeled "Suspend network activity until all filter lists are loaded". The new option is enabled by default, and can be toggled from the Filter Lists tab. It prevents all network activity when the browser is launched, and waits for the add-on's filter lists to be loaded, to block the ads, after which the tabs are loaded with proper filtration of the ads. The extension's latest version introduces a setting that fixes the problem. The issue was that Chromium based browsers sent network requests to servers to resume the activity of the tabs from the previous session. We need to work together to come up with a definition of what an acceptable ad is and what an acceptable ads program can be.Back in December 2021, I wrote that uBlock Origin introduced a workaround, that blocked YouTube ads from bypassing the add-on's filters, just after the browser had been launched by the user. “We need to recognize, as an industry, that this is something we need to deal with. Google’s Senior Vice President of Ads & Commerce, Sridhar Ramaswamy, said in an on-stage interview that he “thinks crappy ad experiences are behind the uptick in ad-blocking tools, and that Google, along with the advertising and publishing industries, is obliged to come up with a fix,” as Re/Code reported. ![]() ![]() While misbehaving and even malicious web ads will continue to make some people feel the need to block ads, the mainstream industry will eventually have to react and reach some kind of armistice with the blockers. In reality, advertisers and websites will have to adjust - just as they have through the years, such as when pop-up window blocking became the default option in web browsers to prevent annoying pop-up and pop-under windows. This assumes the the web is some kind of inflexible unchanging entity. If no ads, your fav media disappears #NoAdBlocking” “Internet ads are life blood of marketing, journalism. And the Crystal ad block extension’s developer said he will work with Eyeo (which produces Adblock Plus) to use its acceptable-ads whitelist. This content blocker appears to be a less-blunt instrument than Peace. Unlike the former best-selling Peace blocker, Purify lets the user maintain a whitelist of sites whose ads will be allowed to pass through its filter. Nearly two weeks after iOS 9’s release, the $1.99 Purify Blocker remains in the iTunes App Store’s top 50 paid apps list at number 6 (as of October 4, 2015), indicating consumers’ continued interest in blocking ads in mobile Safari. Adblock Browser uses Adblock Plus’s “acceptable ads” EasyList to decide which ads will be allowed to be displayed on a web page. The app, Peace: Block Ads and Trackers, Powered by Ghostery, hit the number-one spot and stayed there until its superstar developer, Marco Arment (Tumblr co-founder and developer of the popular Instapaper and Overcast iOS apps), pulled the app from the store two days later, saying it “just doesn’t feel right.” Ghostery, which developed the filter Marco used in his app, clarified their joint position by saying: “Specifically, the black-and-white, all on/all off approach to content blocking in Peace ran counter to our core belief that these aren’t black-and-white decisions.”īy comparison, uBlock Origin lets you choose to unblock on a per-website basis.
