Fixed That Stupid Pop-up Ad Problem

You talked, I listened. I dumped ZEDO as an advertiser, so no more pop-up ads.

As for what’s left, I’ll quote from a recent email to me from Basil, who I asked to double-check that the offending script had, indeed, gone the way of the Norwegian Blue:

“I’ve turned off AdBlock Plus and everything is working great. I’m wondering if there’s now some way to coax people to turn off ad-blockers. The remaining scripts that AdBlock Plus catches aren’t obtrusive and don’t slow the page much for me. The scripts that slow the page (total load time around 10 seconds) aren’t ads but standard WordPress scripts. Not much that can be done about that.”

So, I know you guys are busy and have better things to do than mess with your browser settings, but if you could white-list IMAO on your ad-blocker (if you have one), I’d take it as a kindness.

Anyway, you no longer have to be ashamed to tell people to go read something on IMAO.

Except for, you know, the fact that we keep making fun of Trump.

But that’s only because IMAO is NOT in the pocket of Big Hair, Big Comb, or Small Hand.

Whether we’re secretly in the pocket of Big Pantsuit, well, good luck getting answers on THAT from the DoJ!

  1. I run ABP and Privacy badger. I will list your site as I have for several sites. Some would not load correctly, if it works, great.
    I miss Fred too.

    Update – disabled both and all seems well, just a little slower loading.
