AdBlock Plus works for me, but an increasing number of sites have developed ways to check if you are blocking their ads, and then refusing to let you see their content unless you un-block. I refuse and skip those sites.

“then refusing to let you see their content unless you un-block. I refuse and skip those sites.”

Me too. It’s our one weapon to fight back. I didn’t mind an occasional ad, but good god, videos and audio starting up on its own, full page pop ups, pop ups you can’t find a kill button for, and 5-10 ads popping up all around.
Screw that.
