The beginning of that was written on the Adblock Plus forum on November 19, 2015 below. It was uploaded with the sentence "It was welcomed on this screen in a few seconds after loading Yahoo! Mail page", "Yahoo mail can not be displayed. Please disable ad block and continue Yahoo mail" A screenshot of the screen on which the message was written. The word "ADBLK_TRAP" is attached to the URL. The user who initially reported to the forum was using Google Chrome, but since someone commented "I'm a Firefox user but the same thing happens", I can see that it is not a malfunctioning browser.


A similar page was displayed Yahoo! There are many mail users, and many reports are done on Twitter.

"I blocked the inbox because Yahoo mail uses add block.I think it's a good thing.Say goodbye and hello Apple Mail"

"Please disable ad block on Yahoo mail." If you do not want me to use Yahoo mail, it's a good start. "

"In the worst, Yahoo mail tried to invalidate Ad Block, do not be silly."

On the day that the post was done on the forumDigidayIt will report and the situation will be known to many people. News mediaVentureBeatIs Yahoo! I contacted the publicity, "Yahoo! is testing the new product and the indication" Please disable ad block "is displayed to a small number of Yahoo! Mail users in the US" It seems there was an answer.

VentureBeat is a PC with Firefox Yahoo! I opened the mail and found that the page was not displayed, but when I added the parameter "reason = ADBLK_TRAP" to the URL, I heard that the display of the message could be confirmed.

A similar mechanism has already been added to the London newspaperCity A. M.And the American newspaperWashington PostWe are also starting to experiment, Yahoo! Although it became a form following these publishers as well, "It is a different meaning to do on a news site where similar articles can be read on other media and a mail service that contains the user's personal content" Develop anti-blocking technology as "dangerous action"YavliCEO Tom Yeomans said.
