iOS 9 content blockers to block ads

[Para]

Wrong. Post your sources that you heard this from.

 

Ad Blockers are increasing in numbers, if anything.

 

Only one blocker was removed - called Peace - by its author, because he had a change of mind.

 

Apple had nothing to do with it.

A new report by PageFair and Adobe estimates $21.8bn in advertising revenues will be lost in 2015 due to ad blocking.  In the United States, ad blocking cost an estimated $5.8bn in lost revenue in 2014 and is projected to reach $10.7bn in 2015 and $20.3bn in 2016.  The global cost of ad blocking is expected to reach $41.4bn by 2016.

Like them or not ad revenue pays for all the free apps we are so quick to download which is why almost all offer a ad free version for a price. Without that revenue who is going to bother to develop new apps? I know there is still click through ads in websites that are to me more of a pain.

Website advertising doesn't pay for app development.

 

If websites care about maintaining a revenue flow or advertising then they shouldn't have been whoring themselves out for advertising dollars.

 

I used to try to maintain a whitelist, I no longer do. Sites that I used to white list initially eventually became ad-abusive as well.

 

Sorry, but screw 'em.

So who will you annoy when PA with its advertising goes to the wall?

If you're annoyed, perhaps you can find another thread worthy of your attention.

It's interesting to note that Apple has banned some adblockers, specifically those that block inapp ads citing security concerns, I honestly don't know if that is a valid reason or not so I reserve judgement

 

the outcome of this is the only advertising that CAN'T be blocked is Apples own network iAds

It's only possible to block web content advertising via safari

[DaffyDuck]

Not an issue, seeing as how iAd doesn't apply to web content advertising - it's active in-app only. Subsequently, in-app advertising isn't limited to iAd, and there are several in-app advertising networks.

 

I don't understand what the point of your comment is?
