It appears that even messages on publisher sites requesting users to turn off ad-blockers are also now being blocked. Currently, the only large publisher featured on the "Adblock Warning Removal List," is The Atlantic, however those managing the list may add to it if others' messages are seen as obtrusive. The list lets AdBlock Plus users avoid viewing messages on sites that present the warning, making it harder for publishers to communicate with users about turning off their ad-blockers and thereby supporting the ad industry.
