Why Ad Blocking Hurts the Sites You Love

I block all flash from websites using flashblock (it’ll put a ‘play’ button over the flash thing, and I can click it to activate the flash). This has nothing to do with me not wanting to see ads (there are even fora that ban users with adblocks), but everything to do with buggy code - flash is horrendous, and without it sometimes even my new computer came to a grinding hold.

It is all fair enough that ads are shown, but some websites have such horrendous flash stuff on them that you cannot see the content anymore - that is the limit.

I can see all ads on LGF…
