by ElPoonPoon, 2 months agoThe ad blocker has intrusive pop-ups just like the things it's designed to protect you from now.
They disguise them as "update" notifications but they are pushing updates every week and if you have the extension on multiple devices it will take over whatever tab you have open and show you that it's updated for the 5th time this month on every single device and conveniently also have an option to donate money.
The annoyance quickly builds up. After being interrupted and having to close a good 20-30 pop ups across all my devices a month, I'm done.

We have been releasing frequent updates, and I apologize for the disruption this has caused you.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18646285, a month agoIt seems that the software has become almost as annoying as the spam it is supposed to prevent. It can't be that almost every day that I open the browser it takes me to a page that asks for payment. There was a point where I considered purchasing the premium package but decided not to due to the many times the program asked for payment. Just excessive! In the meantime I deleted and moved on to something else.

posted 14 days agoThe update page should only display once each time we release an update to the extension. Please try reinstalling the extension. If that doesn't resolve the issue, please open a ticket with us so we can help. — Kat C., AdBlock Support - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14689724, a month ago

posted a month agoIt is difficult for any ad blocker to block ads on Twitch. Since Twitch ads are inserted directly into the video stream, ad blockers must “race” to block ads on Twitch streams before the site can download them. This means that while AdBlock does block Twitch ads, we may not be able to catch every single ad before you see it. If you see occasional unblocked ads on Twitch while using AdBlock, a simple page refresh should eliminate them. — Kat C., AdBlock Support- Rated 5 out of 5by Ila, a month ago

posted a month agoIf you YouTube ads, please try disabling AdBlock for a day or so. When you re-enable AdBlock, you should no longer experience ads. — Kat C., AdBlock Support- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13461841, a month ago
