Keep replacing the ones you’re using with the latest iteration
I mean, a lawyer’s gonna disallow that I’m pretty sure but that’s how we’d be designing new bikes at DaVinci Crater if I were over there. I’ll stay on the low sec roads, I know it needs major design certification before anyone can take it on the nice roads
Should be, but prototyping and making one offs is expensive, maybe even 100x the cost of mass production per unit, so they will of course be looking to do the minimal amount possible
Good old Cluley, he also has an award winning podcast, Smashin’ Security. It’s a light hearted take on recent security events. Its usually 30 - 45 minutes long.
The real question is, did it start as a joke, or start as a fetish? ‘Cause we all know the internet was gonna’ draw metal titties the second someone said, “attack helicopter” even as a joke.
Not joking, every time a website asks me to turn off my adblocker, I leave and put it on my blocklist so it never shows up again. Then I simply use their competition instead.
Adblock users optimise their adblockers to be invisible to adblock-checking code. If your site works well, and is worth visiting, the only change in behaviour you can inspire is people nerfing their own adblockers.
I think most people just install ublock/others and leave it default. When I tried to customize ublock all those lists and regex pushed me away, never tried again since.
Ads can mean many things. It could be short for something (for example Active Directory Settings). I remember getting something legitimate blocked like 10 years ago but nothing in recent years so I imagine the detection got better at dealing with that.
Step one is you don’t refuse files from the server, and try to answer as if you have them when asked in js. But the current actual methods and arms race is happening by comparing computed results, how your page is rendered according to your own browser when probed, vs how the detection code expects it rendered. Adblockers do things like lie, or inject things that can look close enough to ads that you pass the tests. You can see how detection works and try to sidestep what it does by looking at libraries like these github.com/sitexw/FuckAdBlock
This one in particular will probably just not run in uBlock out of the box so this one’s pretty easy to sidestep. But you can stuff code like this obscured in your site and another piece of code that checks that it hasn’t been removed. It’s pretty difficult for website develops to win this fight, since ultimately they’re letting us download and render their pages with fairly transparent technology.
Think about it like this: even when you link other posts in lemmy, you link them in their home instance, because there is no way to link posts so that everyone gets one to their own instance as you can do with communities in the threadiverse. Neither can you repost it in any meaningful way, since that just means copying the content, which would make it appear as though you said it yourself.
