mintguide.org obstructs webpages if it detects ad-blocker

Post by redoctagon »

Go to mintguide.org while running adblocking software, and you get a message on an overlay blocking the entire screen:
We\'ve detected that you\'re using AdBlock Plus or some other adblocking software. Please note that we try to keep this site online as long as possible, so disable adblock and other plugins will help us keep this site running forever...Thank you!
I do not want to turn off my ABP, and I want ABP to eliminate these anti-adblocker overlays. How?

thanks once again, mapx. websites try to stop ad-blocking, but with your help, their attempts are futile.

Hello, I'm the site owner http://mintguide.org/. We revised policy for dealing with blockers. Can check by going to the site. Of course it is sad that the Linux user wants to read information on the website, but does not wish to support this website.

A lot of another plugins have all browsers. Not only adblock.

it's true, but at least you have a chance on this side (adblock plus is the most used among others)
