I don't mind ad-supported content, but I don't want to see this Taboola/Outbrain garbage. So I created a short blocklist (compatible with uBlock Origin and Adblock Plus) for these clickbait ad networks. Pull requests are welcome! :) https://github.com/cpeterso/clickbait-blocklist/ https://github.com/cpeterso/clickbait-blocklist/

Are YOU aware of this one weird blocklist? Advertisers HATE it! (may they all rot) http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm

  They clearly said that they don't mind ads as long as it's not this click bait crap. I guess it pays really well because every newspaper web site has it :(

    Anecdotal evidence: news source I read tend to switch from provider to provider every six months or so. Either they are offered a great deal by the new incumbent or management gets fed up with poor revenue/poor targetting. I've seen it happen 3 or 4 times in the last few years?

Just added it to my ABP - thank you! Taboola & Outbrain are a plague on the internet. Plus, I still have belly fat.
