@dangoodin And I use it due to the fact that those 'ads' are running very intrusive scripts. Not a problem showing me ads. Show me ads, just not those scripts siphoning off information about my machine and location.
Also, how do they know I am running adblockers unless they are running extremely intrusive scripts to detect what I am running?

@thomastraynor @dangoodin At least some ad-blocker-blockers are shown by default, then disabled by something loaded with the ads. If you don’t load the bypass from Doubleclick or wherever, the script runs and shows the “Home taping is killing the record industry” popover.
