I know, I know, the wisest thing to do is to abandon them, but today I came across a site that I simply couldn’t bypass because it always blocked me with an extremely stupid “disable your adblock” video, that infuriated me so much… I would 100% migrate to torrents if I didn’t find such unique catalogs on these sites.

    I guess rethinking the browser metaphor could help.

    Like who tells you that ads couldnt just be displayed on an invisible popup window? Or a second screen?

    Those sites generally detect if you dont load certain content. So I guess cosmetic filtering (downloading but not displaying) could already help
