- Rated 2 out of 5by TRiPWiRE, 8 days agoSeems to block ads, but the whole "clicks ads" feature does not work. Always shows "no ads collected on this page". This is after going to sites such as news.com.au, nytimes.com etc. I've gone back to using uBlock Origin.
- Rated 2 out of 5by zelda404, 10 days agoHas better page element blocking that uBlock Origin, which is my main use case for it. A day or two ago it broke YouTube's video player, though, so I've had it turned off since and use just uBlock for now. If the YouTube player issue can be fixed I'm turning it on again, but for now it's unusable for me.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Amora Silver, 10 days agoThis no longer properly works with YouTube. It causes the site to no longer load properly, clicking on video thumbnails does nothing, and videos will not even play anymore with this active.
- Rated 2 out of 5by CaptDedEyes, 11 days agoGreat alternative to uBlock Origin, but it's been breaking down on me recently. It kept targeting the wrong things on YouTube and breaking the site's core functionality instead. Gonna switch back to uBlock until further notice.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 17587892, 5 months agothe filters never auto-update, and there is no manual option to update all at once, only one by one.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13248877, 9 months agoUnfortunately this addon is causing constant errors on YouTube at the moment. Causing playback errors about 90% of the time when clicking a video into a new tab. Had to disable for now.

- Rated 2 out of 5by sinogoga, 2 years agoWhat to do if he doesn’t click on ads at all? Advertising is blocked, but no clicks occur.
Other ad blockers are disabled, still the same problem - Rated 2 out of 5by Blue Whale, 2 years agoYour AdNauseam extension doesn't work properly. Your AdNauseam doesn't show how much Ads hide, how much ads click and how much malware blocked.
This issue i feel in my desktop, laptop and android. I also feel this problem in others computer and mobile phone.
It's very very old issue, I can't understand why you are not solving this bug!!
I like so much AdNauseam but i don't want to get this until you are solved this problem.Developer response
posted 2 years agoIt is possible to see how many ads are being blocked by accessing the inner uBlock menu by clicking on the uBlock icon on our popup menu in the bottom left corner. There you will find all the information that are usually accessible on the uBlock Origin menu. AdNauseam is focused on the obfuscation aspect of collecting and clicking ads, besides only hiding them, therefore our primary menu focuses on those statistics first. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 16858320, 5 years agoWorks like a worse uBlock Origin, it detect a lot less ads than uBlock and barely any to click on.
I love the idea but currently you're better off using uBlock rather than adNauseam. - Rated 2 out of 5by McBob, 5 years agoGenerally good, but whenever the rules for a site get changed to gray/"noop"; they are locked like that forever. You cannot change or remove those settings or the rules for that site whatsoever.
The creator said weeks ago that a new release was coming out to fix that, but so far, no fix. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14055541, 5 years agoEven if the same filters are applied as ublock and enabled 3 sliders, AdNauseam doesn't block as ublock does especially my local (Japanese) ads.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14773836, 6 years agoit blocks ads but doesn't seem to actually click any of them
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13961049, 7 years agoThe only thing it does (and this can't even be verified) is "click" ads. Can't believe I disabled Privacy Badger for this impotent reinvention.
