nizamani18610yHate it when they do that.

endre8622310yTried to get past a 'fade to white over article, pay to read' block on a Norwegian newspaper site. But they were "smart" enough to exchange the actual articles with gibberish. =\ -
liberaldog46310yHow can fellow developers be so ignorant to the fact that its this simple to read the article without entering anything?

perfectdark263510ythey do it to counter the effect of AdBlock, how else do they make their money by showing ads? I mean the press gets raped pretty hard by AdBlock. -
fatlard1993172210yJust like Pinterest... I just open dev tools and delete the offensive DOM element.. -
epse35989y@liberaldog the boss says he wants a lightbox, so you make a lightbox. Try to explain to your boss why you are still working on it even though the blocker and unblocker already work. -
I hate it when they falsely accuse you of using an ad blocker, just because they can't figure out mobile browsers ðŸ˜
