This is the reason why I haven't visited Wired or Forbes in months. And it's not that I couldn't figure out a way past their ad-block detectors. The idea that I must disable what is inherently a security feature just so they can satisfy their marketing goals is antithetic to an open web.
I noticed Wired no longer blocks uBlock Origin (or more humorously, uBlock Origin has now began filtering out anti-adblockers) but I continue to see no reason to frequent their site.
