    I think this is more about trying to educate people about why adblockers are bad, mmkay.

      A video player window is the best place to be used for ads. For example, I can play the same videos as ign.com (put any video source there), but with my own ads. E.g. every video about a new computer game will send a visitor right to my amazon account where he can instantly buy it. The same way works if you sell toys, electronics, t-shirts or even cars, houses and whole islands ;)

            On Mobile especially (mainly mainstream) the ads are so out of hand, you can see why ad blockers are used so much now.
            Some long pages have just a small paragraph of text for the actual content and the rest is dominated by ads or being fooled into where to click for the next page.
            The page jumps around while the ads are loaded which leads to mis-tappping the wrong link and so many mainstream sites look identical in layout with all the click-bait shit.
            It reminds me of the early circle jerk adult sites from years ago and its a lottery where you'll end up depending on what you may mis-click/tap on.
            I never browse now without ad block or use an adblock browser on mobile devices.
            The amount of ads are ruining the net.

                wired.com has a variation - you can start reading the article, but after a short period (or perhaps it's triggered by scrolling a certain amount) a beg screen covers the content. You can reload and scroll a bit further, but the more times you do this, the more quickly the begs seem to trigger. Eventually I could only read a few sentences each time. I'm not really sure whether making someone reload a page 10 or 15 times to read the article is going to encourage them to whitelist their site... or just piss them off.

                (I'm not even sure why I get the begs - I don't have an ad blocker installed...)

                  I wonder how long it's going to be before someone comes up with an app or plugin that does the reverse - instead of blocking ads, it pulls content? Even sites that I would have previously considered reputable are now running the same bullshit clickbaity ads that everyone else is. A short article will have significantly more screen space devoted to ads, so why not just use an app/plugin to display the text only?

                      Ads are killing the porn industry. So do I worry about blocking them? Not a bit.

                      Once everyone blocks ads, we can get back to making money.

                          I already made my money.

                          Would less free porn help or hinder your ability to make money?

                            I used a pop up plug in for wordpress that used to generate quite a decent amount of money but there have been some changes to android phones that block this sort of pop up and now it hardly makes any money. I still earn from the other ads thou. Wish I could find some sort of unblockable pop up plug in that looked decent on both mobile and desktop.

                                I've blocked adblockers. You ain't getting in for totally free. Don't care if they go to another site, next site can have the leaches. Want to see my content without paying? Then let me sell you. If not, fuck off.
