How does one get to read the article? When I do the link I am confronted by flashing ads with no turnoffs. All I get of the article is the headline.

The conservative tribune is the absolute worst when it comes to the ads. Nothing wrong with the articles but damn.

I have some ad blockers (forgot which one or ones I used). It blocked a lot of those you mentioned, but alas, not all.

Also depends on which site I visit, too. Sometimes I simply couldn’t load a page, it just hung there. (For me, it is Townhall)

No problem seeing the whole article. No ads or popups at all.

Check your computer for malware

Get palemoon web browser (free, open source: www.palemoon.org). Once installed, add some add-ons like adaware plus, noscript and ghostery--available for free from the add-on menu item in the browser. Boom. No adds, and no tracking you around the web.

Look up “Ghostery” and install it in your browser.

It blocks ads, cookies, pop-ups, etc. Works great, and you have control over the sites you visit WRT the junk that they try to make you read/respond to, etc.
