   Could someone point me to a good, *simple* way of detecting whether someone is (or is not) using an ad blocker?
   
   I want to surface a small, unobtrusive box in a corner of my website encouraging visitors without an ad blocker to install uBlockOrigin.

     @martijn I have Firefox's tracking protection stuff set to the max and uBlockOrigin has a ton of additional filter lists and rules enabled but it still says I'm allowing ads :neofox_lul:

     @amolith the clever_ads.js solution here works fine on most that I've tried. https://www.detectadblock.com/

     @amolith No need for detection, just make it an ad basically.
