after hearing a talk Robert Hansen gave at AppSec USA, I then realize why adblock plus has been doing a poor job :( it can't stop most of the pop ups and ads anymore.
- HaEB4zcjbp 13y agoIt does if you uncheck "Allow some non-intrusive advertising"
- nullymcnull 13y agoI think you misunderstand. AdBlock doesn't force this whitelisting, it merely defaults to using it.
- yeukhon 13y agoDid you just say they default to use the whitelist ad program?
- nullymcnull 13y agoYes, I believe if you just blindly click through the initial install for the extension, the limited whitelisting (for 'unobtrusive ads') will be in effect. That's the whole idea, isn't it - to whitelist for the majority of users who don't read the fine print or tweak things, while still allowing anyone who cares to shut it off.
