- Rated 1 out of 5by Gilligan, 11 hours agoThis used to be a great add-on, but now at least weekly if not every few days (I haven't kept track) it will randomly open a new tab (stealing my attention) nagging at me to pay for a subscription. On top of that I am finding that I have to disable this add-on for more and more websites from glitches it causes. Websites that don't really even have ad's. Like the most recent one, eBay. I was having problems with eBay loading. And after resetting Firefox, I started disabling add-ons. After I disabled Adblock suddenly eBay loads perfectly, and even faster than it has in a long time. Yes I tried reinstalling it, then I have the same problems again. This add-on has passed it's time. It has become what it was designed to block.
Edit: After using my browser without adblock for a few hours, every site is noticeably faster. Interesting, there was a time when adblock would speed things up... Evidently that has changed. Other reviews have a response about how you initiate that popup when there is an update. Perhaps limit how many times that can pop-up because it happened far more than once a month.

Ironic, I know, but also spam.

posted a day agoWe're aware that YouTube has been intermittently testing strategies to show either ads or their anti-adblocking wall. However, in some cases we've found that your settings might have changed which is why ads are suddenly appearing.

posted 21 days agoIf you are still being asked to disable Adblock Plus even with ABP already off/page allowlisted, most likely something else is causing the issue. This article can be helpful in understanding the problem: https://help.adblockplus.org/hc/en-us/articles/1500003502101-Why-am-I-still-asked-to-turn-off-my-ad-blocker-after-allowlisting - Rated 1 out of 5by seb, a month agoStarted asking for money in annoying, could say aggressive way - extension removed. For people who have the same concern - I think there are alternatives that are not asking for money every day.

Well can adblock please explain to me why I get a popup every once in a while to give $40 a year to use their addon?
About the money I donated which was $35 I want it back. Why you don't need to lie about it be honest up front.
Also if some admin is reviewing this I will be more than glad to show that donated $35 to adblock to have them turn around and demand another $40...Developer response

- Rated 1 out of 5by FQC, 2 months agoFormerly would block pop up video ads, that's now been moved a subscription based service. Would rate 0/5 if I could. Bad business practice.
