    “accidentally”

    Your platform is not exciting Microsoft. It’s also a royal pain to manage or fix.

    A “leak” of tools that should just be out there to begin with is lame.

    Wow this site is ass, they’re putting ads on the top and bottom of the screen, in the middle of the article, and pop-ups on images???

        More specifically I would recommend adnauseam since it’s extra punishing to aggressive advertisers by clicking the ads automatically.

          I thought Adnauseam was only to screw over the tracking by clicking every ad, as clicking ads generates revenue for the site?

            I’ve heard that it’s considered click fraud and that the advertisers sometimes Force the site to pay them back possibly a little bit extra as a fine.

            Not too sure though. Personally I don’t really use it because the adblocking structure I have set up isn’t really compatible because it has multiple layers. I block the ads over the network through a network-wide firewall, I also block them through portmaster on my computer, and finally I have uBlock Origin in my browser. I also have adnauseam alongside of it and I turn off ublock origin for the sites that I want to autoclick ads on but almost none make it through the multilevel network filtering.
