#4  Firefox with adblock and noscript addons is also very good at avoiding popup and blinky stuff.

That’s part of the reason why we do that, M. When I spend time reading their articles beyond the key points, I do it in Reader view, which gets rid of the ads. On my iPad there is an AA thingy at the left end of the address bar at the top of the page — clicking on it gives a drop down menu, among whose options is Reader View. Our PC desktop offers something similar.

#1  Please specify that your link goes to Daily Mail. Their obnoxious adware policy makes it a no go for lots of people.
