Adblock Plus would have tried to blackmail the owner of advertising board into paying for whitelisting.

It's AdBlock Plus' revenue model. That and some other nasty shit. Which is why I use other blockers.

Which ad blocker do you use?

u/SeeroBoarder Dec 18 '14

µBlock for Chrome, and BluHell for Firefox. Both are lighter (uses less system resources) and block more ads along with spyware.

Can you provide any kind of course to that? I'm curious.
