I know, I know, the wisest thing to do is to abandon them, but today I came across a site that I simply couldn’t bypass because it always blocked me with an extremely stupid “disable your adblock” video, that infuriated me so much… I would 100% migrate to torrents if I didn’t find such unique catalogs on these sites.

It’s not an improvement over the previous meme but I take any chance I get to post this image

It’s such the best meme, and a thing that so many people need to see at every opportunity so keep posting it.

99% of the time, unless there’s something I’m convinced I can only get there and I really need it.

I handle them by realising that whatever they have, it’s not worth disabling the blocker for, so fuck them.

I get my Spanish Latin media 🏴‍☠️ from many sites like that.

Not always an option to just go elsewhere.

Unless you really trust that site, I wouldn’t do it. Think “ppp” (prohibit porn- or piratesites), because those sites are the least trustworthy to load javascript.

I have been using those sites since decades ago, so I think I am safe.

Block third party scripts and third party frames.

Works wonders every time.
