A site asks me to disable ABP. What to do?

What is an anti-adblocking notification?

One of the most common questions our team receives is whether there is any workaround when an anti-adblocking notification appears. An anti-adblocking notification is a pop-up that prompts you to disable your ad blocker to access the site.

Websites have the right to ask their users to disable their ad blocker. And while we believe anti-adblocking walls are an intrusive practice, we also understand why publishers ask users to allow ads to see their content. 

Most importantly, although it's technically possible to block those notifications, in some cases it's illegal to do so.

What to do when they appear?

When seeing one of these pop-ups, you can either disable ABP for the specific page or add the website to your allowlist.

What if the pop-up still shows after pausing ABP?

If you have followed the steps above and the anti-adblocking pop-up is still appearing on your screen, it is most likely due to another extension or setting. Please see the suggestions here: Why am I still asked to turn off my ad blocker after allowlisting?
