    Okay, and when you wonder why websites shut down, it’s because people like you.

    Leaving the site is fine. Blocking their pop-up is just stealing their bandwidth.

    You’re the reason many websites have become pay per view, which then I’m sure you bitch about. Nothing in life is free. Either you pay to access, or you view ads.

    It’s actually sad that you’re upset that a website is asking you to disable Adblock so they can continue to fund their website, and provide you with free content.

      Ads are malware (sometimes literally, I think there was a post about exactly that in this very community), everyone should be in control of what they see on their own device.

      Lol, I bet you wouldn’t download a car either.
