BBC blocks a third of Europe from accessing their news service

2 pointsby JamesDeepDownabout 4 years ago
BBC News is now inaccessible if you are using an adblocker. Statisa [1] data shows that around a third of Europeans use adblocking software. They are all now blocked from accessing BBC News. The number of worldwide people the BBC have banned from accessing their website is in the hundreds of millions.<p>[1] https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.statista.com&#x2F;statistics&#x2F;351862&#x2F;adblocking-usage&#x2F;

Please change the title to &quot;BBC blocks adblock users&quot;, since it is currently misleading and I&#x27;d even say very clickbaity.

I use adblocking and turn off JavaScript and can access their site fine.
