It seems like there’s been a lot more websites that have been deploying anti-adware blocker software in the past few weeks. One that stands out in particular is called Admiral (see websites like GameRant for an example).

I have tried Adguard Plus and Rethink DNS (using the instructions from FMHY), and neither can prevent the popup that stops you from reading the site. I assume there’s user scripts out there, but at this point, I don’t even know what to search for on Greasyfork.

Have any of you figured out a workaround?

    GameRant shows up fine both on my phone and my laptop, and I use Firefox with uBlock Origin on both of them. However, if you ever encounter a website with such a popup (basically similar to a paywall), just use what is usually used against paywalled websites. One is archive.today.
