Goodblock: Adblocking for Charity (67)

Goodblock is an adblocker made by the guys at Gladly that allows you to opt-in to ads that make money for charity. You earn hearts based on how many ads you view and can donate them to specific charities, essentially giving you a say in how the ad revenue gained from your views is distributed. The company who made this also made Tab For a Cause, which you can find our thread on here.

You can get Goodblock or learn more at their website:
https://goodblock.gladly.io/

That's a quite a cool idea I'll give a try!

Isn't there already a thread for this?

>>3 The other thread also duplicates our Tab for a Cause thread and will probably be deleted during the next sweep as a result.

*combines this with TabforaCause to win as life* It's like, every time I open a new tab I get twice as many hearts now, because I have both apps.

I'm not getting hearts for the ads I see :(

They are pirates they steal ads from sites and replace it with their ads its almost worse than hacking

Some places like the bbs rely on ads so please try to white list the legit sites you frequent

You don't need to uninstall it but these are my thoughts

I like the cause I don't like how they make their donations

16 Name: BarabiSama !lmBitchbiw : 2016-03-12 11:23 ID:Scn3c/JH [Del]

>>15 Most of us using adblockers aren't going to whitelist sites anyway (though this site is my personal exception).

So nobody's losing more money than they would if any other adblocker were used. It's just that a small bit of what could have been made is instead going to charity.

also >bbs rely on ads
Ads are a fairly recent addition to the bbs, and I'm pretty sure Reltair could support the site fine without them. It's just resourceful to let a site pay for itself o:

17 Name: RoadRunner : 2016-03-12 13:35 ID:yRLTbTiV [Del]

I still think it's criminal adblock and goodblock one person won't make much difference but many people could damage the web and some people can't afford to lose their ads

18 Name: FindMuck !MrEff/SKhc : 2016-03-13 05:13 ID:KtvqpIbY [Del]

Block responsibly.

Ads are indeed important for lots of sites, but it should be fine if the frequently visited ones are white listed as >>15 said. Everyone has different sites they visit, so the impact wouldn't he as large. Bump~

>>17 No need to take your hate for adblockers in general out on GoodBlock. It's here to fill a void. The prospect of blocking or avoiding ads will always exist whether you like it or not -- why not raise some money for charity while we're at it?

tl;dr: You're raging in the wrong places.

Wow! I stopped adblocking on Youtube (sorry youtubers, you didn't get money from me watching your videos). I know it's really mean to do that to the youtubers I love (and some of them do amazing things) but there are some youtubers that I don't support and I click out of curiosity (or on accident) and I can't allow specific Youtubers. However, as I've said, I recently had to stop with adblock because it causes issues with the video (which is okay, I love the youtubers I support). But I reinstalled Goodblock (even though I don't get hearts for the ads that I do see for some reason). And it doesn't affect the Youtube videos at all!

As Bob said here >>16 ads don't make a lot of money, and this just means that the little bit that ads to make will go to a good cause. If there's a site that does good things and you love it, then whitelist it. I do that for the Youtubers that I support. Otherwise, each ad you see (a few cents) will actually go to a better cause, charities.

>>17 Compared to adblock, at least Goodblock allows money to go somewhere with a good cause. Most of the sites I use don't really use ads (other than Youtube), so for me the only difference it makes is the fact I can click to see an ad every day. Since Goodblock doesn't affect youtube for some reason.

More people should start using this instead of Ad block >.<
