Maybe we should create a community maintained list of blocker unfriendly sites, and serve a public blacklist compatible with existing software.
Forbes and others are blocked on my home DNS for hostility and crippling of features. If a company can demonstrate how it protects its visitors from its advertisers and respects my rights, I used to exempt them from my ad blocker. Now I'm sick of seeing rude messages targeting me as an ad blocker user telling me what a horrible person and a thief I am, so I block all ads, and I've discontinued use of nearly all ad supported software. Bottom line: It's not our job to make their business models work, they need to adapt and quit whining.
