This is a good point.
My problem is slow broadband.
I load a page (on the PC), go to click a link and it flips down the screen as the massive ad at the top loads and I click the wrong thing... AAARRRGGGGGGGG!!!!!
Happens all the time.
The thing is, the old ads were fine and I understand sites have to advertise so I too whitelist them. Damn it I even clicked on a few of them sometimes.
But since the arrival of the ridiculous in your face third of a page ads at the top, I'm afraid I am now blocking. I will not have stuff literally shoved in my face.
I will review from time to time.
When the ads get sensible again, I'll unblock.
I'm a reasonable man.
I've been meaning to send them a direct message about it. Will get round to it at some point.
