Now? FanFiction.net has put interstitial ad on their page, like the one you get once a day when you come to lj. The difference? THERE IS NO WAY TO X IT OUT<\/strong>. You have to 1. Listen to the video and 2. Do one of the quizzes listed. The page states that ff.net will get $1.40 for every quiz. If you don’t do this, you can’t get to the ff.net pages.

Still, it was highly annoying and I figure I’ll be using Firefox (and Adblocker) for viewing FanFiction.net.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
