I switched to AdNauseam and can’t tell any difference. And apparently AdNauseam actively is a hindrance to the ads instead of merely blocking them. Can anyone elaborate?
Kinda depends on your perspective. It costs advertisers money and pays the website you’re visiting. If it’s a shitty site with a lot of ads, you’re effectively encouraging them putting in more ads. Since you’re “clicking” on every ad, and it’s not affecting your experience, it sends a message that stuffing the page with all those ads is good for revenue. It also just charges advertisers. I don’t personally think running ads inherently makes a company bad, so in my opinion clicking on ads out of spite so they get charged for a useless click is kind of not a great solution imho. It seems like it kinda benefits the wrong people, unless you’re exclusively going to great websites running ads for terrible companies.
It only clicks tracking ads to feed them garbage data and leaves ethical ads alone.
That’s basically it, it just creates a ton of traffic from your system by clicking on every ad as it blocks them.
The idea being you ‘hide in the noise’ essentially. I’m not sure how well that works though.
Well so far it blocks everything just as good as ublock as far as I can tell. So if there is even a chance I’m fucking with the advertisers, I’m sticking with it.
I’m pretty it is just a modified uBlock Origin.
