Also on Chrome, which blocked it just fine, until I clicked on the page to close a _modal_ advertisement, where clicking is fair game to init a popup. Dirty yes, but a popup blocker is not going to block an HTML modal or `open` upon user interaction.
- chii 13y agowhat i usually do is right click, select inspect element, and delete the element (and any sort of blanket/covering over the actual content). This gives them no opportunity to force javascript popups.
- hobs 13y agoI dont know if salon works without it, but just remove javascript entirely from bad actors. Noscript is my best friend.
- leephillips 13y agoI might have been partly incorrect above, in that what I was describing as a popup might have been the initial modal ad. That would explain why I saw the second, actual, popup, and why Chrome reported blocking several additional popups after that. Still, a horrible experience served up by Salon, resulting in me not reading the article.
