- notauser 17y ago2) Sure it does - just click on any add and blacklist the domain. Takes two seconds. (I'm actually surprised more sites haven't started responding by proxying ad content through their own servers to make it harder to block.)
- irons 17y agoDoubleclick doesn't allow proxied ad distribution, and I'm not sure a similar effect could be achieved through DNS. The Ars thread touches on this, where Kurt mentions that Doubleclick's ad deployment isn't smart enough to detect flash-blockers and serve a static ad, and Ars isn't permitted to replace Doubleclick's deployment code.
- rythie 17y agoOk, thanks though you can't do it per site so you have to click on all the ads that offend you and they may change ad supplier. Also your effectively blocking a particular ad supplier not a domain that has a poor ad policy.
- natrius 17y agohttp://adblockplus.org/en/ http://adblockplus.org/en/ "Right-click on a banner and choose “Adblock” from the context menu — the banner won’t be downloaded again. Maybe even replace parts of the banner address with star symbols to block similar banners as well." The AdBlockPlus documentation explains how to limit specific rules to certain sites. (EDIT: http://adblockplus.org/en/filters#elemhide_domains http://adblockplus.org/en/filters#elemhide_domains) If you get filters from someone else, you're probably blocking ads that don't bother you on sites you enjoy, which sounds counterproductive to me.
