You are incorrect. It does not bypass adblock on firefox. Yes, the ad shows, but that's because it does not trigger any of firefox's blocking rules (assuming Fanboy's list. I didn't check the others). He triggers chrome's by the element of name="google_ads_try". Firefox does not block elements of that name. Firefox's much more powerful plugin architecture allows Adblock Plus on firefox to actually prevent ads from loading; it doesn't insert css to hide them. As such, javascript to try and prevent css injection does absolutely nothing against adblock plus. As a proof of concept, visit this site (it's his modified to hit adblock plus's Fanboy's List by adding ?bannerid=100 to the end) http://pastehtml.com/view/bstgyxtln.html . Turn on and off adblock and notice how, even though I left his anti-adblocking code in, it's helpless to stop firefox actually blocking it. |

Does anyone know why it fails here then? It looks like there might be some other issues with the dev version, so maybe the new method of blocking just hasn't moved into the full version of ABP for Chrome yet?
