Would you be ok if AdBlock sent an identifier to the website so the website could choose to block you if they wanted ?

- Lionga 13y agoSome website already dectect adblockers and at least "warn" users. I find this perfectly fine
- bediger4000 13y agoYes. But I don't think I'd run AdBlock at that point, not because I would be blocked from certain websites, but rather because that would be giving away too much information to a bunch of known liars, cheats and con men. Like I said, advertising is so close to lying, and advertisers cross the line from encouraging to lying so often, that I don't want to give that much real info away. If I couldn't block the ads for some legal reason, I'd try to come up with a way to fake-click on ads, so as to spread disinformation about myself. The advertisers are almost certainly lying to me, so I'm going to lie to them.
