AdBlock Plus Now Sells Acceptable Ads

Adblock Plus: Premium online Advertisement blocking tool Ad-blocker is now looking to brokerage Ad sales. Eyeo GmbH, the software company behind this ad-blocking tool, is been making huge money from blocking online ads.

The German-based company announced its alliance with an Israeli ad-tech Startup ComboTag, to deal with the sale of certain advertisements targeting the Adblock Plus users.

Adblock Plus is one of the user-favorite tools for cleaning up clunky website interfaces, blocking ads, and preventing website tracking.

The company is now planning to sell “acceptable ads’ which tend to replace instructive ads and would be a great platform for advertisers and consumers.

 “We were without even being aware of it,” says ComboTag founder and CEO Guy Tytunovich. “We established guidelines for a proper advertising mix that would not annoy users.”

Adblock Plus is now making its efforts to remove the bad ads which are less instructive and less annoying. The tool is going to host a marketplace for acceptable ads where site owners and operators can pick up ads and replace in the pages where bad ads were.

Adblock Plus users will see only the “acceptable” ads but not the normal ones.

“What it does is it opens up just strictly the ad-blocking market. When we started talking to them, it was like, I don’t want to say preaching to the choir. It was more like two different preachers preaching to each other about the same thing. We can now work within the known architecture of advertising, rather than in this very, very … time-consuming old way of whitelisting” says Ben Williams, a spokesman for Adblock Plus. “So we’re talking to tier 1 [ad] agency trading desks and … we’re talking to digital publishers, and I haven’t heard a negative response yet. Everybody seems to get it.” he added.

This new acceptable initiative is a great compromise between advertisers and users which perfect sense on an idealistic level.

Many sites wouldn’t be able to operate a website without adverts, so this change allows web-site operators to advertise while enhancing the user experience. This doesn’t hint the idea of ad-blocking service to sell little backward ads.

Facebook recent action plan of blocking ad-blockers is again facing an obstacle to overcome. The fully updated version of Adblock Plus shows way to avoid ads in the Facebook news feed. Ad-block plus strips ads even from the Facebook’s new format of blocking ad-blockers. Facebook provided a new option to choose among the types of ads which users allow them to appear in their feed.

Facebook rolled out its new feature unblockable ads just two days ago, the release of new version of ad blocker is still a nightmare for the social networking giant. The company crafted ads especially to mislead these type of ad-blocking plugins. “We’re disappointed that ad blocking companies are punishing people on Facebook as these new attempts don’t just block ads but also posts from friends and Pages, This isn’t a good experience for people, and we plan to address the issue.” a Facebook spokesperson said.

Facebook Forces Advertising on Users of the Ad-blocking Software

Adblock plus is been ready with the counter attack “This sort of back-and-forth battle between the open-source ad-blocking community and circumventers has been going on since ad blocking was invented; so it’s very possible that Facebook will write some code that will render the filter useless — at any time,” Adblock Plus’ Ben Williams writes in a blog post. “If that happens, the ad-blocking community will likely find another workaround, then Facebook might circumvent again, etc,” he added.

Facebook removed the code which amplifies the identity ads in the first place. Later it was changed to ‘sponsored’ to appear more like regular posts. This cat and mouse game is all about the matter of finding the non-standards indicators being used by them. Earlier on Tuesday, Facebook supported its act of forcing ads on users by providing control over the types of ads what they see. Behind the reasonable argument of ads is the primary revenue for the Facebook, which is provided optional and free service. But the fact is that, people are using ad-blockers to maintain their privacy as the ads can track their interests around the web.

There are plenty of perspectives to be considered, and the reality is that the technology made ad-blocks available, and millions of users found it fruitful. And this might be the reason behind building the tools like ‘ad preferences’ which users can control their own apps.

Microsoft Edge to Receive Adblock and Adblock Plus

Good news for the Internet Explorer lovers. Microsoft Edge, the new inbuilt browser of Windows 10 would be soon getting an update for enabling the use of Adblock and Adblock plus extensions. According to the users, it is one of the missing features of the browser. Microsoft is working keenly for bringing their users back by providing most desirable features for their products.

Adblock and Adblock Plus are the web extensions which are from two different companies. But the functionality of the duo is quite similar. They are equipped with most powerful tools for blocking the ads. Chrome alone had 40 million users using Adblock whereas the number would increase when other browsers are taken into consideration.

Recently Opera had also launched their browsers for PC and mobile with inbuilt Adblock option. So to be in the race, the multinational Redmond-based company also started to work on the same. From March 2016, the firm had been testing features of extensions. The company is looking to enable users to free from Ads and feel the much smoother experience.

The question is how much the company would be successful in attracting the users to use EDGE instead of more powerful browsers like Google Chrome and Firefox. The successor of Internet Explorer interface was good and better than the other. According to the statistics until February, Edge holds a mere 3.9 percent of the overall browser market. It accounts only 8.8 percent of all Microsoft browsers in use.

The major drawbacks of the Microsoft browser are that it lacks the cross-platform ability to use the same browser both in IOS, Android mobiles. Many users prefer Chrome for the inclusion of this feature. Another limitation is that Edge cannot pin web applications to the taskbar and it can’t run apps like email, calendar, photos, music and other such apps in separate app windows.

Hopefully, Microsoft would update all the lacking features in EDGE shortly to regain the number one spot on the list of most used browsers. Presently the extensions are available only for the inside users of Windows 10. Soon the new features would be made available for all the users of the operating system.
