posted a year agoHi,
Thank you for your review.
In this program, websites are permited to show certain ads on the page. However, those ads have to be produced according to a series of criterias (ie. not animated, non-intrusive, cannot block content, etc). Websites have to apply join the program and are judged by a committee. This ensures that all pages follow the criteria established.
Users can chose to opt-out from seeing Acceptable Ads at any time in their ABP settings.

However, in some cases we've found that your settings might have changed which is why ads are suddenly appearing.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Garrus-V, 7 days agoUnexpectedly opens a Browser Tab asking me to upgrade to a plan and pay. HARD. F***ING. NO! >Use uBlock Origin instead.< Also, the "allow some non-intrusive ads"? What in the actual f*ck? It completely subverts what I attempt to achieve!
I list this ad blocker as "Not Recommended".
TL;DR
Get uBlock Origin and spare Yourself ads completely and the ad blocker's "ads" about getting a plan.Developer response

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18948543, 11 days agoThe real thing, and, has never let me down for 2 straight decades. There are a lot of wannabe fake ones that "look" like they are blocking stuff this one misses but that's not true, they are just "stealing" those stats by stepping in front and blocking them before it can by moving itself up in the page handler queue. Don't be tricked by fakes or moofed by reviews of novices/kiddos who can't configure their devices properly.

I get it, stuff costs money to make. This is a really annoying way to ask for donations though and cheapens the experience. Other ad block plugins dont do this.
