Third spruce tree on the left"An ad blocker is preventing this page from loading."
No, my #adblocker is preventing your #ADs from loading. The fact that the REST of your page refuses to load if the ads dont load, well that sounds like a YOU problem.
Do any of these CMS and online-ad platform/network #productmanagers realize that if they were to just go back to unobtrusive only-static-image ads embedded in the html of the page itself I would fucking put eyeballs on those? But noooo, we gotta have modal popups and pay-gates and minimize-in-the-corner auto-play videos.
This worked just fine until 2010 then ya went and ballzed it up.
Ambient Sponge@tezoatlipoca At this point I have so much ill will towards the advertising industry that even if they went back to those I would still block the shit out of every single one.
The only reason I'm not setting fire to all advertising I see in the real world is because I'd get arrested.
LevkaOnly if you get caught.
@LevZadov @tezoatlipoca Knowing me I'd get caught.😂
All crimes, both great and small, follow the same rules.
(1.) Have no witnesses.
(2.) Leave no evidence.
(3.) STFU about it, even to the people you think won’t rat you out when the cops squeeze them. This is the hardest part. We all like to brag. At least wait till the statute of limitations runs out.
Just saying.
Never do anything illegal. You might get in trouble, especially if you're stupid enough to do it in front of a camera.
