Scripting News: 9/7/2005 : Boing Boing now has distracting graphic ads in its RSS feed. So far it's just making it hard to scan their blog posts, but if it starts interfering as I scan others, I'll unsub. It'll be the second feed I said goodbye to because of annoying item-level ads. It's Feedburner again. Why they don't give users a way to opt out of these ads is beyond me. Dave's screenshot shows him using IE6. He really should be using Firefox. I just had a look and the feeds appear to be coming from http://feeds.feedburner.com/~a/* It was the work of moments to add this to AdBlock et voila, no more RSS Ads from feedburner feeds. |
