A buggy whip.
Simply because a product threatens your business doesn't mean you are entitled to get it legislated out of existence.
AdBlock puts out a product that saves people bandwidth and filters out all sorts of noxious, potentially dangerous content.
However, there ARE ways around AdBlock. At the root of it, your ads simply CANNOT utilize any of the aforementioned noxious, potentially dangerous means to FORCE views.
If this breaks your business model?
Get a better fucking business model, as the one you're using now sucks.
Also, end users VOLUNTARILY install AdBlock. It isn't a default install anywhere. So these are people who have made a choice NOT to accept traffic from your crappy ad network. AdBlock didn't FORCE their product on ANYONE. Again, you don't have a right to force people to view your content.
