Extension summary
Removes annoy interstitials from certain sites. This is very different from AdBlock.
Q: What's an interstitial?
You know when you click a link for a news site and you get redirected to a 'welcome' page with ads? That's an interstitial and this Chrome Extension will bypass that annoying redirect.
Q: What sites are bypassed?
forbes.com.
Q: Why not more?
Each interstitial must by bypassed manually. This involves looking at their code and bypassing it. AdBlock simply blocks the site from loading. Here we need a custom approach for each site.
