Provide ads, not anti-privacy trackers.
Want more ad revenue? Stop wrapping your ads in privacy destroying tracking scripts, and more people will see the ads. I and many others don't block ads, that's a lie the ad industry loves to promote. We block trackers (and malware, but that's another issue). Most of what you're calling "ad blockers" are actually TRACKING blockers. Ghostery, uBlock, Privacy Badger, and other tools are about protecting privacy, not blocking ads. Post images, we'll see them. We do all the time. Post ads, we'll see them. Post images and ads wrapped in cross-site tracking code, you're not going to get as…
Thanks for contacting us. We appreciate your feedback. We, just like you, would prefer to have a website free of ads, but reality dictates we need to pay the bills. The way ads are served on our site is similar to elsewhere, and follows industry standards. Also, FYI, our parent company owns and operates our ad system. We don’t use an outside firm. This gives us greater control over security and user experience and helps ensure that users will not be compromised in any way. I hope this helps put you and other more at-ease.

My Store
Hey, how are you. I am an aspiring 14 year old entrepreneur that loves cars. I have recently finished building my website, Vettura.co , and I was wondering if I could get a small spot on your blog to promote it. Thank you and hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks for contacting us. Unfortunately we are not able to promote your site. Best of luck.

Consider not asking people to whitelist your site.
Per the Oath terms of service, section 8a, linked to at the bottom of your site, "you" takes zero responsibility for the hosting of harmful advertisements on your site and any and all damages harmful ads may cause your site users, including but not limited to compromised site-related data and local infections on personal computers resulting in loss of data security or even damage to hardware.
I understand that money needs to be made to keep the power going, and I likewise understand that asking that people whitelist your site is much more tolerable than sites like Forbes trying to…
Thanks for the feedback. I understand your point. Our intent of the ad blocker detection and the messaging was, as you mentioned, designed to let our readers know that ads help us keep the lights on and we wanted to be very transparent in that messaging. We also wanted to give users a choice in the matter. I can understand your concerns about viruses and would encourage you to do what you feel is prudent. In any case, we appreciate your readership and hope you continue to visit even with ad blocking on. Thanks.

Whitelist you say? How about you make it a binding and financially liable agreement?
If you are going to ask me to whitelist your site from my adblocker, you must financially guarantee that your ad campaigns are 100% vetted from all forms of malicious content.
Being that AutoBlog is backed by Verizon, there is a very large network behind this website and there might be something missed if a large ad campaign goes out...
So, why am I asking for it to be financial?
If I get a ransomware infection and it's traced back a rogue ad on AutoBlog, you will be responsible for paying me $2000 or more in damages/repair/recovery on a per-computer… -
I hate your web site. Go ahead, try to use it as ads pop over content and content shifts constantly. Crapo design.
*, * *!!! Ads all over content, shifting content. * design.

2019 Honda CRV RECALL
Saw a brief note on line for a recall from Honda 2019 recall to be issued in July!! Contacted dealership who ran VIN and called me back to say parts to fix are on order following my request! Would not have known without small note on internet - no outreach from dealership!!
Thanks for the information.

Get VW to bring the ID neo to the US. I want one.
Waiting almost 2 years for this car. Now it will not come to the US after they were saying the debuit in the US would be in 2020.
Unfortunately, we don’t have that kind of pull with VW. Thanks for being a reader. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do.

Thank you for large pictures
I just want to say Thank You for using large images for your news stories. Many other automotive websites use scaled-down images that do not go full-screen. With the large pictures you provide, it allows me to see more details, which I love when looking at spy photos and concept cars. Please keep this aspect of your site going in full swing.
Thank you for your compliments and for choosing Autoblog.

stop autoplay
You guys had a horrid redesign lately and you fixed it. But now you have autoplay. And I'm cutting you off the my blogroll because of it. You lost audience reach for the 2nd time.
Thanks for your feedback. We understand the use of auto-play can be annoying. We’ve tried to be conscientious about the way we’ve implemented across our site. For instance, our homepage player defaults to muted audio, pauses when scrolled out of view, and contains no pre-roll advertising before the initial video playback. Our aim is to expose Autoblog homepage visitors to our original video content without being disruptive to their browsing experience.
