Unacceptable "acceptable" Ads

Post by Ceolona »

The main reason I use an adblocker is to block click bait and fake news websites. It doesn't matter if the presentation is "acceptable", the content is utter crap.

The big three that I complain about are: Taboola, Outbrain and Zergnet. Taboola/Outbrain are little more than clickbait, and Zergnet is nothing more than a portal back to its own server, regurgitating other websites clickbait.

These three need to be added to the blocked list.

My "me too" comment. Outbrain is clickbait ads. They are, for some unknown reason, whitelisted on Washingtonpost. At the bottom of the article are clickbait Outbrain ads.

Those three were just off the top of my head. A list that I have been specifically blacklisting in '1Blocker' for iOS because of CONTENT, rather than presentation

outbrain
viralnova
gravity
zergnet
revcontent
taboola
