Must make sense to a marketing droid somewhere ...
So the user says no thanks to the adverts they are not interested or perhaps they don't want the bandwidth charge as they are on metered Internet or a slow connection or something.
In response, the site decides it has to force it down your browser anyhow. Nice.
Think I'll install the add blocker and visit these sites to show that I don't want that either.
Learn from the end user rather than try and force feed them rubbish they don't want.
Time is precious, I've not got the time or inclination to watch adverts, I just click close if its forced on me. My eyeballs are under my control, not yours..
Other options are to minimise the amount of adverts rather than plastering the page, the backdrop, the auto-play sound, flashing adverts and other things that we already know people detest.
I can state categorically that if I get one of those, I close the page and go elsewhere.
