I created a little plugin that loads some JavaScript and detects when an ad blocker is active. If it finds one, then it will run through all the images on a page and blur them.
This makes the page readable, but not as usable as it might be. The images are blurred so that those who are more concerned with looking at a page than reading have an incentive to turn off ad blocking.
The images have an “alt” that says that it is blurred because ad blocking is detected.
DIVs with background images are also blurred, but all the text is blurred, too. I am not sure if this is a bug or a feature.
Please download from the beta test plugins page (link at top of this page) and let me know if it works for you.
If I get some good feedback I will try to sell this plugin.
