What's up with sites detecting adblock and popping up modals so you can't even interact with the page anymore?

Firefox and Chrome on Android.

Guess that's hint enough that this outfit is garbage and not reputable. Flagged and added to domain block lists.

Works for me with Firefox/mac and a ton of extensions.

In most cases, using a "reader" mode, either built-in or as an extension, gets rid of the popup, and then disabling javascript.

I usually save articles as pdf and various print style sheets very often take care of annoyances.
