Yes some sites now won't let you use them if you kill their adverts. This includes catch up video sites as well.

It's the snotty sort without phone number, street address, email address, nor chat link. Just a form to fill out. But before I sent it, I have to prove I'm not a bot. So I play their game, and loose; I cannot get pass the troll even with repeated attempts. The more complicated stuff is made, the worse it works. In this case, the smart alex lost a sale. I do business with a company whose web security is so tight, that I just call them about my account. Those places when you're put on hole and have to listen to abnoxious sounds and/or ads ... |
