Redirect Flash Ads
One of the wonderful things about AdBlock is that it gets rid of those nasty Flash ads you get on video sites like YouTube, TwitchTV, and Blip. The downside is, a lot of people rely on ad revenue from those same sites. So I got to thinking, how great would it be if, instead of blocking all Flash ads, there was the option to redirect the ads to an unseen, unobtrusive second player. That way, the ad will play, and be reported as playing, thereby giving ad revenue, but we won't have to sit through the same damn Larry the Cable Guy/Disney ad twenty times a day...

This is considered fraud, as we are making the advertisers pay for ad views
which don't exist. You can, however, make the ads show on the site you want
by clicking the AdBlock Button then "Don't run on pages on this domain".
