Reviews of the ethical ad blocker:
i never get to use any of my favorite sites anymore! how do i remove this?!
I wanna uninstall it, I can't figure out a single way how to uninstall this! This is why: I wanna play a game on Google Chrome, it's called ROBLOX, It won't let me! So you better make this uninstallable.
I believe adds are great! The problem I have, and only reason I have started using an add blocker is, there are simply too many adds which make viewing a webpage impossible. When you wait longer to load the adds on a page than you do to load the page itself, it becomes a problem. If the add redirects you once it has completed its loading it should be blocked. Maybe by ethical blocking you could build a blocker that only blocks an add that oversteps simply notifying a person about a product. Having an add shoved forcefully down your throat is probably why the blocker exists in the first place. Banners and blocks never bothered me, however popups, redirects, overlays, close this to continue, and other such crap make browsing irritating to say the least. Pages with reasonable adds get greenlighted on my browser anyway. Some pages even ask if you stop using an add blocker on their site. A polite request goes a long way when the adds are not cluttering up your browsing.
Does exactly what it sounds like, pretty good if you want most of your websites blocked I guess. But it doesn't offer a way to whitelist, continue while viewing ads, or anything. Would be nice to say "Sure I'll view ads, let me in"
Not what I expected though. I'm aware of the moral/ethics debate about using adblocker. However all browser adblockers I've used (only 2 so far) gives me an option to whitelist. Unfortunately this one have none so I ended up seeing a completely blocked website without a way to make an exception. I understand this extension is still new and there's are rooms for improvements but I think a simple whitelist should have been made available from the get go.
A great extension!
Fantastic, I never have to compromise between browsing experience and my ethics again.
