I'm not gonna risk my computer by turning off my ad blocker, but I wonder if that article comes with exactly the kind of chumbox ads that they're rightfully criticizing.
There's 9 ads between the chapters of that article and one that follows you on the side of the screen as you scroll![](https://feddit.uk/pictrs/image/be9af3b1-8a35-49b3-a760-009f712d4ad0.jpeg)
If it has a link it can be blocked. Just block by content instead of by node path.
I disabled my adblocker to take that screenshot.
