Ads continue to break through Adblock Plus for Safari. Why, I do not know, perhaps Google has better programmers? I did get in contact with the Adblock Plus folks at last. The initial response/fix was for non-Apple browsers & OS. Once we got that cleared up we did get the settings fixed, and it is working as it should, but it almost seems like it has to be done on a per website basis now >> but so far when set it kills those ad dead.

It seems the spam club now has a way around adblock. The addvertisers now can recogize ad block is installed and deny access th their content. Before, I did not mind a "few" ads, and I sometimes visited some advertiser's sites. Now, it seems the sites I am interested in want to sell me membership to their sites for a price more than I am paying an internet supplier. If I subscribed to the sites I am in terested in my total subscription cost is more money than I take in, leaving nothing for food. Where quanties of poor ads used to slow down my computer to a crawll, now I can not see anything. My rerason to try adblock was that I was spendingmuch more time waiting for ads to load and then dismissing them, than I was in reading content.

Good / Neccesary Safari Extension

I primarily use Firefox on my MacBook Pro laptop - however, there are times for which an application will either open Safari or I need to use it, so it's good that this extension exists for Safari and I am glad at how frequently it is updated, but ABP alone isn't enough to get me to use Safari full time when I cannot add other things that ABP is apparently not able to add to a Safari extension; however, recommended.

When I click on news outlets from various national newspapers it won't let me read the article unless I allow ads on their site. I'll go into adblck plus and allow ads for that site, but when I go back to the site it still says that their ads are blocked. This happens a LOT, and I ensure that it's not because of blocked popups or such. They think and write that the adblocker is still in place.

If you are still being asked to disable Adblock Plus even with ABP already off/page allowlisted, most likely something else is causing the issue. This article can be helpful in understanding the problem: https://help.adblockplus.org/hc/en-us/articles/1500003502101-Why-am-I-still-asked-to-turn-off-my-ad-blocker-after-allowlisting
