- Rated 2 out of 5by Kittentheboss, 3 years agoThe memories of this go way back. Back to 2016 and 17. This was the one to use. But then a few adds were slipping through. Then the rumors started. I don't know if these are true but one things certain. It didn't work. Somewhere deep inside me is saying that they just don't update it anymore. Well whatever the case. It didn't work then and i bet it doesn't work now. We need something reliable. Not let an "Acceptable Ads initiative" Ruin what an ad blocker is supposed to do.

posted 3 years agoHi there!
There seems to be some misunderstandings about our Acceptable Ads Initiative. Users are still in control, and can disable “allow acceptable ads” in options. If you still experience ads with this option disabled, please be advised that these are more than likely NOT Acceptable Ads. In these cases please send us the URL along with a screenshot of your subscribed filter lists to support@adblockplus.org. We are usually able to get these reported to the filter list team and resolved. Rest assured no company can pay us to have their ads shown. Publishers have to meet the criteria set by the Acceptable Ads Committee before being considered. Most companies actually pay us nothing at all. You can find more details regarding Acceptable Ads here https://acceptableads.com.
Thanks

ABP Support Team - Rated 2 out of 5by Andy Mabbett, 3 years agoUsed to be really good, but I've just experienced "An issue has caused your ABP settings to be reset to default.", for the third or fourth time, and the fix requires uninstallation and reinstallation, and says "Note that depending on how you use ABP, you may need to re-configure your settings, custom filters, and whitelisted websites once you reinstall Adblock Plus."
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 12722348, 3 years agoпо сравнению с конкурентом, стал практически бесполезен. интерфейс неудобный, кучу рекламы пропускает, и жрет много памяти.
- Rated 2 out of 5by MJ, 3 years agoHave noticed recently that this add-on no longer blocks annoying pop-up ads and videos. It has worked for years and now all of a sudden ads all over the place, even with java script blocked for all add sites and even the sites I am visiting.

- Rated 2 out of 5by chewtoys, 4 years agoUsed for plenty of years on an assortment of different computers, but something within the last year has happened to the add-on that lets some of my custom filters slip through unblocked. I've fiddled with it so much that I've made the switch to uBlock Origin and have been having better results so far. Nothing wrong with my computer or Firefox, Ryzen 7 16GB RAM. Not really understanding the issue going on to be honest. Always down to re-download in the future if this issue gets fixed.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 16682607, 4 years agoIt blocks most ads pretty well, but it refuses to keep youtube.com##.style-scope.ytd-display-ad-renderer.yt-simple-endpoint blocked. For reference, thats the ads that look like the first video suggestion on your homepage. Every day I have to block it again. I don't understand why its so hard for the extension to do.

- Rated 2 out of 5by ArthurHenry1995, 4 years agoEra bom quando bloqueava os anúncios em vídeos exibidos no YouTube, agora só faz metade do que cumpre!
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 16170503, 4 years agoI am seeing ads after having this add-on for years.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 12845100, 4 years agoStill not available on the newest version of Firefox mobile, but great on desktop! 5 stars once it's working again
- Rated 2 out of 5by jul, 5 years agoEfficient but under ubuntu linux makes the CPU crasy, the fan of the computer turning full speed and even totaly freeze the OS. Too bad.
Efficace mais sous ubuntu linux consomme tellement de ressources CPU que le processeur chauffe énormément, firefox allant même jusqu'à parfois "geler" complètement l'ordinateur qui doit alors être arrêté de force. Dommage. - Rated 2 out of 5by Mark, 5 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 12753508, 5 years agoAbout a month or so ago I started having problems with the addon and getting this message:
'An issue has caused your ABP settings to be reset to default. Fix the issue and learn more."
It is unclear what the "issue" is and there is no info about it or what to "fix" and this is creating problems (a new tab about it every time I open FF 78) and it no longer functions as it used to.
PLEASE fix this! I don't want to look for a new Ad Blocker. I have disabled this temporarily (THAT'S not useful!) and hope to hear from SOMEONE very soon or I must delete it and start searching for a different add-on. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 15946948, 5 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Dilligent, 5 years agono longer works on youtube but I am grateful from when it used to cant give 1 star like it never used to work
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 16036571, 5 years agoWarum muss Adblock Plus selber mit unnötigen Pop-Ups nerven?
