CBS detecting ABP

[openware]

@mapx..the latest code has stopped working ..It's detecting adblock and stopping the video playback.
Time for a new one..

[openware]

mapx..could you give some pointers about the codes..like how you find them.
CBS is persistent, we need to keep on finding ways.

Don't do it mapx, he could be a CBS mole

jezus..why is the speculating? It's just good ol' curiosity.

Started a video an hour ago, worked. Now doesn't. Refreshed EasyList to be sure. Still broken.

Max, you should consider creating a subscription for these filters that updates hourly.

@mapx..pls keep us helping..without you we will be drowned in those innumerable ads.
Thanks for your effort.

Mapx - when I add one of your new filters, should I also delete the prior filters or just keep them all?
Thanks for all your help - your work is appreciated!!

[Buran]

So far, keeping the old ones hasn't caused me any problems, but that's certainly something to check if you do find that some feature or website doesn't work right in the future.

[mapx]

yep, remove the old ones.

Why does cbs do this shit? Even worse now you need to pay to get episodes the day after and you still get fucken ads for paid service...

Fuck these people ill keep using adblock and not giving them $$$$

[Buran]

Because they don't care about your experience. Only theirs. I didn't mind ads in the beginning in the late 90s but once you use video, sound, actively get in my way, or slow me down, you're gone.

too bad ABP cant do some kind of encryption thingy so websites couldnt sniff out if a user had it installed.

no, they can't sniff if you have ABP installed, they can test if some ad / script/ other object was downloaded or/and displayed in the page. So, nothing to do.

It's back to not working.

[mapx]
