Re: 2 Reasons you shouldn't use adblock

Postby bluegreen » 20 Jun 2015, 15:42

In the past I had 2 oe 3 addblockers running at the same time, but pages would load very slowly, currently I am runing ABP only, yes I know that people are wining money with it, but you are losing money when a f***ing virus get in your system because you accidentaly clicked some add and puff there goes your software, you format your PC you lose everything you had, what now? GGWP there goes important documents, simply use at least one addblock plugin...

Who exactly is making money out of adblocks? Or are you trying to say sites who use ads are making money. If the latter, then you simply enable a whitelist for specific sites and allow those sites to earn money.

And since when do adblocks make videos slower?

Pop ups and ads are annoying :evil: it really slows down my webpage loading. So I guess adblock really is something to be used

Try using NoScript, blocks ads and pesky elements on a page that just boggles it down.

If you use adblock, everything runs slower because it needs to check the entire script more than once and the changes of variables but websites with pop ups are faster.

It require some time to block those adds, that´s true, but from my own experience, it´s much faster than load 3 flash adds with pop-up.

Your title is misleading than your post.But sometimes its necessary to use adblock because some site install adwares without letting us know and later on it becomes so annoying while you navigate.

I used to have adblock, I disabled it in all websites except the ones flooding you with popups, if it was one I was okay but no more than that.

I love adblock cus u can't click on some sites without being redirected to another site or without receiving continious streams of pop ups. I disable it on sites without ads obstruction.

I think those you said are neglible. I am using it in my pc especially on some anime sites because every time i download a video, a lot of pop out downloadables appear and it is very annoying.

Back when ads were mostly harmless banner ads, I didn't mind them. However, flash ads, popups, etc. are extremely annoying, and I refuse to deal with them.
