Hi - I found this site (which has a major userbase)

https://www.ttgmedia.com/advertising/digital

and i found this very irritating when they talk about their digital advertising strategy

"and crucially, all our digital advertising is immune to adblockers."

Is there any chance we could do anything about their "we have the high ground" message?
(and the fact is, that the site actually seems to be immune to the adblockers)
- there is a top MPU, a wallpaper ad, a quite a few normal MPUs on the site

It is time for us to strike back!

Test this filter

Code: Select all

||d2osdnqd2igqfx.cloudfront.net^$script

see if is breaking the site or if you still see other ads

[AdmiralLordM]

It does break some functionality

however i did a bit of a digging and their ads seems to come

Code: Select all

||d2osdnqd2igqfx.cloudfront.net/AcuCustom/Sitename/Documents/Creative/*

(well not quite)
there is a long hexadecimal string as image filename after the url above (*)

using the filter above (mine) - seems to work at this point quite well - however i see the problem - renaming the cdn, or altering the folder just by one character would render this useless.

Code: Select all

||d2osdnqd2igqfx.cloudfront.net/AfcTool/CampaignPlacementArea/CampaignPlacementArea.js

or

Code: Select all

ttgmedia.com##.ao-creative-bg
ttgmedia.com##.aos-OFH
ttgmedia.com##.ao-cpa

Nice. This one actually removes the ads and keeps the site nice and tidy
