ScreenRant

Well, ScreenRant has gone full R, so to speak... all those annoying ads have been replaced with the "we've noticed you have an adblocker installed!" notices.

Too bad; I liked using that site, but I guess it's time to consider alternatives...

Damn, CBR.com just did the same thing. The Internet is becoming pay-to-play.

Funny you say that, because that's where I went right after ScreenRant. As you said, same crap there.

if these sites didn't make the ads so annoying and intrusive, and numerous, we wouldn't have to block them.
