New iterations of the Yavli cancer keep reappearing.

http://www.bidnessetc.com/49026-nokia-c ... e-worried/ serves the ads from http://username1.link/

Also to note is their adblock detector script at http://aaa.username1.link/adBlockDetector/6992 The number at the end varies depending on website.

Here's how Yavli describes themselves - https://ops2015.sched.org/sponsor/yavli ... buCnrUcP94
Yavli monetizes website visitors who are using ad blocking software. Up to 31% of desktop users browsing publisher websites in the U.S. are using ad blocking software that prevents advertising from loading online. Utilizing proprietary technology that works with all ad blocking software and extensions, Yavli recovers a significant amount of lost revenue by displaying an unobtrusive form of advertising to users with ad blocking software installed.

Yep, posted here too:

Interestingly, the URLs are no longer random; they appear to be masked as regular dailycaller.com links, but they redirect if clicked. However, if you copy the link and paste it in a new tab, you'll reach a 404 on dailycaller itself.

My latest sites re "Promoted Content From The Web" ads

Post by MichaelIsGreat »

As of 08/15/2015, here is my latest update list of sites that I have to block the malicious and very annoying "Promoted Content From The Web" ads. As you can see with my previous posts on this particular post as Michael123 and then as MichaelIsGreat, this list has increased significantly but it should cover most links that need to be blocked.
Unfortunately, what is very clear with this type of ads is that this list will continue to grow over time, as they create new sites continually I could say. I have also added to this list the sites that I found for 2) and 3) at the end of this list below.
1) "Promoted Content From the Web" ads custom filter used with AdBlock Plus:
||iunbrudy.net^
||topdi.net^
||boomsbeat.com^
||chiuawa.net^
||contentolyze.net^
||fuandarst.com^
||anomiely.com^
||polawrg.com^
||simusangr.com^
||jusukrs.com^
||xylopologyn.com^
||yuasaghn.com^
||wensdteuy.com^
||spereminf.com^
||frevi.net^
||spoa-soard.com^
||gotraffic.net^
||lia-ndr.com^
||a.batarsur.com^
||batarsur.com^
||deuskex.link^
||aaa.deuskex.link^
||buatongz.net^
||taboola.com^
||images.taboola.com^
||taboolasyndication.com^$third-party
||outbrain.com^
||outbrain.com^$third-party

I also have created two separate custom filters in AdBlock Plus that surely could be added with this list above but that I have created separately, they have the following links:
2) Taboola ads custom filter used with AdBlock Plus:
||taboola.com^
||images.taboola.com^
||taboolasyndication.com^$third-party

3) Outbrain ads custom filter used with AdBlock Plus:
||outbrain.com^
||outbrain.com^$third-party

These are the three custom filters that I currently use and have with AdBlock Plus.

The subscription lists that I currently use with AdBlock Plus and that I got at en/subscriptions are the following ones:
---EasyList
---EasyPrivacy
---Adblock Warning Removal List
---Malware Domains.
That is it.

In other news, the cunt collective at Yavli have finally "launched" - http://uk.businessinsider.com/anti-ad-b ... ?r=US&IR=T

Claim to have a team of 20. 7 figure revenue.

I reckon they're going live now to ride the wave of press which will address how iOS 9 content blocking will impact the ecosystem. Try and sell the company or raise a big amount before investors clock on that their adverts are so poisonous that adblockers will just target their publishers, or move to a whitelist instead of blacklist system.

Hi, I'm not sure if these ads are Yavli ads, but they are promoted content ads.

I've added and updated many of the filters but they keep showing up. Worse, they take over the article forcing you to reload the page to see it.

Also the content on the right side of the screen.
