Aside: screw Forbes. Between the pre-load ad screen and the autolay ad video (which for some reason I couldn't even close), their site is downright unusable.

- abpavel 9y agoPausing and then quickly unpausing AdBlock when the page starts to load is a workaround.
- DamonHD 9y agoI just gave up visiting Forbes long since. I use ads myself (eg AdSense and AdWords) and have no objection to well-behaved ad copy, but I run NoScript for safety and F's site is thus pretty well unusable to me.
- jdeibele 9y agoI'm using uBlock on Safari and I'm not seeing this. Still hopeful that we'll see something that universally disables HTML5 auto-play videos.
