Slightly related question from a non-expert in ad-blocking: is it possible to block interstitial ads? While the freedom to render a page as you wish seems to come with controlling the browser on your computer, I can't imagine any way to circumvent the ads the obstruct the entire page and force you to wait for a few seconds before seeing content. Obviously you can just choose not to render them, but if the server can just delay serving article content until X seconds after the interstitial loads, it seems like the fundamental advantage here lies with the publisher and not the user. While submarine ads and lobbying are obvious responses to the Ad-blocker proposed above, wouldn't interstitials (which personally bother me much more than sponsored facebook posts) also gain popularity? |
