Detecting popups like this automatically seems like it will be more of a cat & mouse game with developers trying to find ways around it and then a bunch of legitimate use cases being blocked out.
And Firefox still hasn't fixed their issues with native popups: http://fan-pages.herokuapp.com http://fan-pages.herokuapp.com (WARNING: if you use FF it may crash your browser)
- shawndellysse 9y agoIt would have been helpful to give a warning that simply going to that site would crash my browser.
- wybiral 9y agoSorry, I didn't think it was that effective anymore. Updated. btw Chrome seems to have some kind of protection against that dialog DoS. From what I've been told Firefox actually downloads the content in the background before you ever approve the dialogs (which is probably great if someone isn't popping an infinite number of them).
