And then if you do disable adblock, it's difficult to read the article because there's a never-ending stream of animated big macs and bank ads and crap pasted beside it, helpfully fixed position so you don't accidentally scroll it off the screen.
I say as someone who makes his living largely from ads, if you have to force someone to view your ads, they're not going to click on them anyway! What's the point? All you've done is potentially driven away a reader.

- calbear81 11y agoFor something like McDonald's what's the point of tracking a click? Few will click and it's not like you can order a Big Mac and fries online. They'll most likely track it to some type of in-store sales/visit number based on where they have targeted the ads.
