@faraiwe Every single time!

[kaosc@defcon.social]

@faraiwe So right! <Emphatic expletive deleted> no!

@faraiwe ::adds domain to blocklist::

[ahalam@social.vivaldi.net]

@faraiwe every time! If my ad blocker lets me auto-block the website so that I do not go there again, I would do so. but afaik, none of the ad blockers lets you do that.

Add them to an IP blacklist, same thing I do with Unity because of all their analytics on games.

@kaosc expletives r us!

@faraiwe Loser! On to my Pi-hole. I reserve the right to refuse business with anyone who tries such.

"You may have the right to desire so, but you don't have the right that I comply.

@Hakuso

Where do you keep this IP blocklist?

[disreputable_craftsman@mastodon.social]

@faraiwe this is the way

[lnr@sunny.garden]

@faraiwe Might be worth trying reader mode. Works well for cookie popups (but not always) dunno how good it is for ad blocker popups.

[faraiwe@mstdn.social]

Gee, I guess people really, really dislike ad block disable requests.

Lesson: rant long enough, and you will hit a common point everyone hates.*

* - that's not the lesson.

@faraiwe

me too

[v_d_richards@literatur.social]

@faraiwe

Yeah, like this

[faraiwe@mstdn.social]

@Kerplunk delete the cookies, leave the site.

See how I fixed all your whining?

Shoo.

@ahalam
I use iptables, but I'm on Linux, think it's the hosts file in Windows you can.edit to block requests to a site.

@faraiwe
1️⃣ on Reader view … or "Inspect Element" then delete the modal overlay

[faraiwe@mstdn.social]

@roens OR...crazy idea, I know... don't bother with that website.

The very design already shows it's NOT something you want to patronize, or give your custom to.

Vote with your wallet, and your attention/presence.

[faraiwe@mstdn.social]

Ok, because a repeat thing, it seems.

I am *NOT* interested in anyone's look-I-discovered-this-thing-everyone-else-knew-about to circumvent the adblocker request.

The very intent of whoever designed it already tells me I shouldn't bother with it.

Respect yourself more, people, PLEASE.
