If you have to interact with it is harder to select using uBlock's interface. You can also use Greasemonkey to block more invasive ads, but I never had much luck with that. It's designed to do more than filter background content. I feel like I need to ask whether or not you've done something like disable cookies. I'd not suggest doing that, at most delete all of them when you close your browser session. It's impossible to use most pages without having cookies enabled (this makes automating things with web libraries infuriating). R0b0t1.
