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
Blocking ad block users is ridiculous and shady

50 protests, 50 states, 1 movment (originally 1 day, but then it become more than 1 day) is what 50501 is short for

https://www.fiftyfifty.one/ is the correct link
Note how the link you are on doesn't have the last f

ad blocking is cyber security, there are no sites more important than blocking whatever advertising cookie evilness they want to infect my machines with
