I've got 0.1.12 installed in Chrome. These URLs are all flagging as sponsored:
http://www.theatlantic.com/
http://www.theatlantic.com/404meplease

I've got a bunch of other extensions so I'm not positive if this is an AdDetector problem alone.
Many thanks, love the tool!
The homepage for Gawker throws the plugin's banner.
Example URL: https://motherboard.vice.com/read/the-swedish-fish-theory
Not sure how to detect this one, as it appears to be a manually added image. I don't know whether they have any other sponsored items, either.
Are there plans to add a Safari Plugin as well?
The repository appears to contain version 0.0.20, but the version in the Chrome store is stuck on 0.0.19. Is this intended?
Digiday.com is labeled as a native ad. While perhaps not entire untrue, it's still not consistent with the theme you set for the plug-in.
A web extension port is planned?
Another important area to increase awareness of ads is entertainment media. Let's also focus on adding a few large entertainment publications.
Examples:
It seems the first two can be determined based on the URL (sponsored-special
/promo
), but the third one can't be - there's an "Advertorial" badge on the page, though.
Similar to rtlnieuws.nl
, but in this case the sponsor is clearly listed on the page.
Example: http://www.rtlz.nl/sponsored-special/sneller-diagnose-dankzij-toepassing-dvd-technologie
ad-detector marks this article as sponsored by CenturyLink,
http://www.forbes.com/sites/robertglatter/2013/06/21/the-dangers-of-smoking-alcohol/
even though the only mention of centurylink in the html source is in the link to another article in the rotating header. Unless ad-detector knows something that is not shown on the page, this is wrong.
Firefox detects AdDetector to be incompatible with multiprocess (e10s). See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/Working_with_multiprocess_Firefox.

Firefox was all set to go, but I had to change the basic injection technique because Chrome sandboxed the 'window' variable, which was needed to detect Mashable and Fastcompany.
Now I have Chrome-specific calls in main.js that need to be removed before a Firefox version is ready.

Ad detector says everything on the Daily Beast is an Ad.
http://www.thedailybeast.com/
/advertorial/
The extension should occasionally retrieve updated rules from a server.
Some people may not like the idea of a server updating their rules arbitrarily, so this will have to be done carefully and correctly.
See the above url for a false positive.
On this page, Ad Detector says the article is paid for by EY. No idea what EY is and I don't see any fine print indicating that it's a paid piece. http://www.forbes.com/sites/hollieslade/2014/08/21/how-this-man-built-a-3m-business-a-year-on-from-four-years-in-prison/ (The site shows an ad the first time you visit, just load the page a second time to see the article.)
This will allow users to submit pages that are currently not recognized.
We have rules for most, but not all, from this list:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_newspapers_in_the_United_States_by_circulation
I think we also need more rules for online-only media sources (eg. techcrunch, zdnet, cnet).
"Candidate Running for BART Board Buys Bold Italic Journalist's ‘Endorsement’".
_Clarification:_ Bold Italic Editor Jennifer Maerz said she wants to make it clear the Bold Italic was not making an endorsement, rather providing sponsored content[.]
Well that clears everything up.
Just adding it here as a to-do; I haven’t had the time to write the script to detect sponsored content, but clearly this is a perfect example of a site that needs Ad Detector to put a big, fat warning on it.
