Works really well! Can't thank enough

Been in love with this adblocker for a while, I'd forgotten that ads existed pretty much. Recently though, with youtube's crackdown on adblockers, I have been sadly reminded. I saw that there was a filter workaround that works with ublock origin, and lo and behold this extension uses UBO! I added the filters, cleared my cache for youtube and google (because I've been using a google account on youtube. I know, I probably shouldn't but you win some you lose some.) After adding the filters and clearing my cache, my youtube is now ad-free again :) My utmost thanks to the developers!! You guys are awesome

Great extension. Doesn't currently work on youtube though since you need to update to ublock origin 1.53 to get past the anti-adblock and AdNauseam uses an older version. I'll be re-enabling it as soon as they update to a more recent ublock version.

It's great but it doesn't work with the new youtube policy of no adblockers... hope it gets updated!

ads get fucked

I love the idea of this app, but the IU would be better if:
1) Clicking the icon in my toolbar didn't load up recent ads in list-view for me to see. These should be hidden away and only discoverable when searching specifically for ads. I want to avoid ads, not view more of them.
2) The stats should be viewable outside of the "ad vault." I specifically want to see the money I've cost advertisers, but the only way to do this, again, forces me to see ads as the ad vault puts all the ads I've blocked on fully display.

As much as I love this app idea, I probably view more ads now than I did with uBlock Origin, which outweighs the benefits of costing advertisers money.

👍👍👍👍

This plugin is better than uBlock origin because it not only not shows the ads, it actually DESTROYS the ad-budget of the advertiser by clicking the links! This is genius! I'm going to spread this to everyone I know!

YouTube: Thank you for your new ads, I wouldn't have never gone searching for (and finding) this plugin otherwise!

Started working again! Overall this addon is a 10/10, does what it advertises and does it well!

Awesome extension. Google doesn't want you to use it because they want to track you!

It's honestly a 4-star addon, but I'm temporarily setting this to one star to get the dev's attention. Read on, and you'll see why:

It works great (for now,)and I realize it's Recommended by Mozilla, but I wanted to warn people about Google's increasingly weird TOS, and specifically, this addon's seemingly dangerous interactions with it.

When you allow this addon to run in the background, it clicks on "all ads" or "some ads," which for some reason causes Google to flag your account as "may be under 18." (Maybe it auto-clicked on a Polly Pocket ad? I dunno.)

The ambiguous wording here is, I suppose, by design. They're not accusing you of BEING underage, they're just saying maybe you are, maybe you aren't.

Of course, the only way to find out your account has been flagged in this way is to click the [+] button in the corner of an ad that Google knows darned well has nothing to do with your Recommended videos. Which means the only way you'll even become aware of it this phenomenon in the first place is by running Ad Nauseam, then turning it off again.

(Intriguingly, if you had Safe-Search turned off before you installed the plugin, becoming "maybe under 18" disables the Safe Mode button in a way that literally makes it impossible for you to enable it again. Is Google seriously trying to say that they both think you may be under 18, *and* that they're deliberately going to force you to see NSFW search results???)

The fact that the [+] only shows on ads that are drastically different from your Recommendeds shows that Google already knows exactly what it is doing, here. They're serving incongruous ads on purpose. The question is why?

It's unknown what Google's goals or long-term plan are, but combined with various other clauses in Google's TOS, this "may be under 18" phrase has some unfortunate implications:

The worst-case scenario I can imagine is, Google bans you, (that is, the user, the person, not the account,) from all of their platforms simultaneously, and also flags you in a database as some sort of child molester, ostensibly because you were over 18 when they served you your search results, but under 18 when you viewed them, and by clicking on the search results, you, an adult, were distributing NSFW content to yourself, a minor. And WEI rollout means they *might* have just enough information to track you as you move from account to account, so they could make it stick.

I doubt they'd have a legitimate legal case against anyone, since you literally can't be two ages at once. But if the goal is just to separate the internet into technological haves and have-nots, this is one excuse they could use to make sure anyone running AdNauseam ends up as a have-not, all the while telling regulators that the metrics say they banned a bunch of pedros.

That's just one of the baffling interpretations of the faux-legalease in these TOS that treats each user as a quantum superposition of their browsing behavior, rather than as a person.

(That said, they can also ban any user they want for "not being profitable enough." They added that gem in 2019. Which you'd think would be good enough to let them do away with all accounts that use ad-blockers, across the board, so I'm not sure what the goal of this stealth ad semi-shadowban is.)

I'd say "stay safe out there," but with the FBI demanding that literally everybody run an ad blocker, I'm not even sure I know what "safe" means anymore.

Not a complaint, just an observation. I would add one star if this situation could somehow be addressed by the addon. (But of course, it can't. That's the point.)

I'll set it back to 4 stars if the dev responds. He seems to take one-star reviews very seriously if past behavior is any indication. (Sorry for the inconvenience, Daniel. For what it's worth, I really like the use of negative space on your website.)

Also, apparently, for the guy above me, KOLJAAAA, it auto-clicked on Malware. Yikes! I wonder if Google is also doing THAT on purpose.

THIS IS HOW WE DEFEAT THEM WITHOUT HURTING ANYONE!!! HUZZAH!!!
