I, for on, welcome this improvement, because ti's advertising that makes possible for so many great websites to allow us to access their contents and services for free.
>The following is the announcement made to their subscribers via email: >Dear PopAds Publisher, >We have finally released our Anti-AdBlock Adcode which uses daily changed domains to avoid being blocked by any kind of AdBlock, uBlock or other similar extensions(or even hosts file). This allows you to monetize traffic that was not monetized at all before. >Unfortunately, installation of the adcode is a bit more complex, however we offer three options depending on your needs and technical abilities:
> Normal JavaScript Adcode. It is perfect if you have very low technical skill or if you are using content platform like Blogspot or Tumblr. The downside is that you need to regenerate and reinstall the adcode every few days(not less than once per week). > PHP AdCode Library. A simple PHP script that you need to include instead of the actual adcode. Simple to use and will work on vast majority of hostings. > Adcode API - advanced feature that allows you to generate fresh Anti-AdBlock Adcode via our API service. This is ideal if you want to have your adcode automatically updated, but your website is not based on PHP. All these options are now available on the Code Generator page.
>This feature was tested for a while now and some of our publishers doubled their impressions. We hope to see your AdBlock traffic soon! >Best regards, Tomasz Klekot PopAds.net

Enjoy being able to use the rich features of 90% of the websites out there.
William Foster

Asher Collins
>monetize traffic Yeah enjoy reduced traffic
Tyler Reyes
Give it a week or two. It'll be blocked again.
Juan Nelson
>daily changed domains wow it's fucking nothing
Parker Rodriguez
How would they block hosts files?
Jason White
Client-side ad generation. You get cucked for your own money.
Henry Campbell
Ads served from same host as content you're interested in. Simple.
Landon Thompson
Ad blockers, uhh... find a way.
John Thompson
Better yet, I'll use LibreJS which will assist me in emailing the web devs to cease their use of nonfree JavaScript.
Oliver Reed
>ad-terrorists using malware-strategies to thwart adblockers yep, that's going to increase compliance tenfold, I'm sure.
Andrew Green
Just block the whole sites using this shit. Because there's always an alternative.
Jeremiah Gomez
>New anti-adblocker-
Stopped reading right there. Luckily I can block the faggots' script with uMatrix.
David Lopez
That hasn't been true in a decade.
William Scott
should have continued to read, though, faggot.
Juan Foster
>make whole site inaccessible So now instead of blocking my ads you're telling me which sites I should and which ones I shouldn't visit. Great work.
Isaiah Lee
>He doesnt use noscript
Adam Nguyen
Read the post. It has a server-side solution and blocking scripts won't stop it.
Adblocking is dead.
Ian Garcia
Not really.
Ethan Powell
>implying you can't just check the ~daily random~ hostnames against known ad network IP addresses and filter them
Gavin Baker
instead of fighting adblockers, they could just make ads less shitty and intrusive
Nolan Lewis
Their jobs is to serve intrusive ads. They don't want to lose jobs.
Landon Miller
No. Ads simply do not work. I will continue to block all ads until there is a better solution
Luke Robinson
>a better solution Subscription and/or microtransactions for visiting. There's no other solution.
Easton Hernandez
so you're a proud owner of a Sup Forums pass, and a subscriber to youtube red, then?
Alexander Ortiz
Nope
Aiden Rivera
Are you ashamed to be a Sup Forums pass owner and a subscriber to youtube red?
Kayden Hernandez
I don't have either
Luke King
What is a better solution?
Owen Collins
so you block ads and refuse to use a different system that allows you to support the website you're using? what would be a "better solution" for you?
Lucas Brooks
For them to stop making their shitty websites
Levi Ortiz
Jesus nigga, even I can't tell if you are serious or baiting anymore.
Grayson Bailey

>I, for on, welcome this improvement, because ti's advertising that makes possible for so many great websites to allow us to access their contents and services for free. Holy shit, kill yourself.
Michael Torres
You might think that instead of wishing for sites to die he could just stop visiting them. But if he wants the userbase to move to the site he does like, it makes sense to want its alternatives to die.
Daniel Phillips
choke on bag of nigger dicks and die narutard
Xavier Stewart
>Kbb wants me to disable addblocker. >Sure why not >Disabled then suddenly ford adds EVERYWHERE >cpu goes nuts, laptop starts blasting heat like its gonna take off >10 seconds later i reblock the site >Everything returns to normal. Never again
Jordan Jones
I want Shiroyasha to sit on me.
Gabriel Green
So, is there a sample page out?
Elijah Morales
no, you don't
Brayden Perry
only sites with shitty content that people won't pay for will care about this, since they rely on advertising for financial life support.
Levi Miller
It's a promise for more money. Every msm site will care about this, if the method really is adblock-proof.
Oliver James
>allow known needed domains >block everything else
Fucking retarded idea OP.
Ryan Bennett
shit content in exchange for ad-money is a deprecated concept.
the only dependable way to make money is by creating quality content in exchange of for actual money.
you you can't monetize your services/products through a paywall, it's because they suck and offer nothing people are genuinley interested in.
Sebastian Bailey
They've already done that, but uBlock blocks even the good simple ads instead of just the intrusive ones. That's why they are going to block all adblockers.
Logan Cruz
2 things can happen to such a site:
1) I leave your piece of shit site because FUCK ADS 2) I element-hide the ads on your website because regrettably youre not pissing me off enough yet to warrant the effort of replacing your shit site in my routine
Either way, fuck ads
Hunter Morgan
Does libreJS work properly?
Jaxon Moore
This is not going to even make a difference. The majority of ublock users will just stop using those sites, or simply use a web archive to access them without any ads. Never tried umatrix before, but it might be worth looking into now.
Jose Rogers
there is a problem with this the ad company doesn't have control over the ad or over the cookies like it has with an IFRAME, it cannot track as much data some sites might even trick their system in order to produce more revenue
ad are also used for data mining and tracking, without the large amounts of information they send to the company they're not so profitable
Andrew Kelly
Wouldn't it cost a hell of a lot of money to maintain a fresh revolving list of unused addresses?
I feel like this solution is more a bandaid than an innovation, and it's more likely than not the host names are connected to a much smaller pool of IPs than the description would lead you to believe.
Adrian Gomez
one domain per day would cost less than $4k/year
Isaac Phillips
>I, for on, welcome this improvement, because ti's advertising that makes possible for so many great websites to allow us to access their contents and services for free.
Such as?
>inb4 youtube >it's not like google is a multibillion dollar corporation or anything >it's not like google makes money in a thousand different ways already >it's not like 70% of "content" "creators" have 20 e-begging accounts where they collect 2k+ USD per video/per month
Fuck off, retard. Sites that put trojan-ridden, intrusive ads all over the page need to die off.
Chase Richardson
And how do you distribute the domains? There has to be a way for fetching the latest active domain so the script can serve ads from there, anyone could make something that gets the active domain and adds it to a blacklist.
Mason Brown
You most likely can only get the domain of the new ads if your website is registered with their service, or if you have an API key. So to get the latest active domain you'd either have to have access to their API or find a way to send requests from a domain registered with them.
Wyatt Flores
How will companies do marketing then? Traditional media? As I have seen with my small business, if I didn't have the internet I'd only get passer byes as clients. And since my business is small and somewhat hidden because of property value, that would mean no more business for me.
Juan Howard
Any site that attempts to circumvent adblock I just stop going there, which I guess has mutual benefit because I stop using their bandwidth and getting their content for nothing and I don't have to put up with ads. I can't think of a single website I want/need enough to put up with that shit.
James White
Implying anyone wants to use the "rich features" and other bloat of most sites they visit.
Leo Wilson
>get vps with 2 domains/ips >get api key >fetch domains from ip A >save results, make them available from ip B >add this list to uBlock, set to autoupdate I don't think they'll bother manually checking every site that requests a key, and the use of 2 ips would prevent them from revoking your access.
John Long
Exactly the reason why I block ads. I'm fine with ads that are simple and don't use up cpu and memory. Unfortunately, a lot of advertisers seem to think that the more messy and bloated and enraging their ad is the better it is.
Nathan Taylor
How would YOU block anti ad programs anons?
Anthony Richardson
I will thanks
Connor Myers
I'd just block the script
Dylan Bennett
My current setup already does. And i've been using it since 2005.
Noah Watson
This is a well-used malware C&C technique called fast-flux DNS. They're using a domain-generation technique. Happily, that also means they can be blocked in advance, because they're also retards and didn't change the seeds.
If they're trying to do it even half-way legit, it's even easier to interdict than the way the malware people do it (with infected machines, stolen cards), because of common artifacts like WHOIS, and associated IP addresses.
Moreover, because of the technique's long association with malware, it's strictly against the terms of service of many hosting services and registrars, so I hope they enjoy getting their hosting and domains pulled if they keep trying that shit.
And what, you think we can't update blocklists in real-time? Again, this is something the "safe browsing" malware blocklists already present in major browsers already handle just fine.
In fact it could be entirely appropriate to use that - if this company is desperate enough to want to use this technique to host ads, it can only be for one reason.
I hope those sites enjoy losing all their visitors, and the ad network thereby enjoys losing all its partners.

Mason Powell
as long as it doesn't come from the same domain, I can block it. The only solution for them would be the siteowner pulls the ads to his own server and serves them to me like the site. But you know why they don't do this? Siteowner could fake their visitors by just pulling the ad every 2 sec and saying "ugh yeah, real visitors guys!".
Adam Wright
>javascript option >most will use this option nothing to worry about
Leo Reed
the "random" domains will follow a pattern and you can easily block content by pattern
Ryder Carter
There's a lot of websites that are online with the donations of the users or their subscriptions.
Just make the subscription worth it without sacrificing the content for those who don't subscribe, or a good website so it can run without ads.
gamingonlinux lives with donations, and I know a lot of websites that lives this way.
If your website is good, people will pay for it. If your service is good, people will subscribe and pay for a premium account or whatever it is
