Why is this a thing. I’ve never seen any website be so aggressive in blocking adblock users. Does 50501 want to track its visitors this badly? I wanted to see what it is and can’t browse it without turning off my adblocker? Id rather not read the website and move on

https://www.fiftyfifty.one/ is the correct link

Note how the link you are on doesn't have the last f
