Verified ReviewerPop Up DEMANDING Me to Unblock Ads with 15 Second Timer
EVERY single time I log onto my yahoo email, there is a giant window with an emoji letting me know I have an ad-blocker. It DEMANDS I either take down my ad-blocker, which applies to several sights I visit, or I pay $3+ to use ad-free yahoo email.
Not choosing either option I close the window, which then literally displays a timer counting down 15 seconds until the window goes away. This pops up not just every time I open my email inbox page, but every, single time anything on the page changes. For example, if I am deleting an email or simply clicking the back button, the new page will display the popup about ads. If I refresh the page, the popup occurs.
If I click on a different folder, such as trash, spam, drafts, etc, the popup occurs. I have had my yahoo email account since 2001, so nearing 21 years. I already have to put up with infuriating ads on other websites, even with an ad blocker, as I'm sure many of us do. I will deliberately go out of my way to avoids ads because that is how intrusive I feel they are.
They are an attack on the senses partially because they are never for anything I want to see (I'm looking at your disgusting ear wax and ugly clothes, Google). So after 20+ years, Yahoo is shamefully wasting my time with the most appalling, non-respectful popup I've ever had the displeasure of seeing over and over and over again. And to demand money, after ALL these months into the pandemic, at the start of the holidays, with more bills, and rent maintenance going up in the new year, with less work and lower paychecks, they want me to pay, just so I can go ad free after all these years?? SHAME SHAME SHAME on you Yahoo.
This is so disrespectful after all these years of service. You know this is awful when you engineered this pop up, leaving the user with these 3 options, the close window being the 3rd with the inappropriate 15 seconds delay. SHAME SHAME SHAME on you!!! What in the absolute *** would prompt you to take this kind of a dirty action?
Regarding the price, even Apple doesn't charge this much for cloud storage.
This is an utter disgrace Yahoo. Change it now.
