Re:What happens when I choose to “Suppress Ads” on Salon? by seveibar on Tuesday February 13, 2018 @12:50PM (#16369106)
Detecting a similar script should prevent the proxying from working, but if the script is bundled into the main JS of the site (as many sites do now) it would be basically impossible to stop w/o blocking JS altogether.

Not sure if browsers can fingerprint script execution patterns, that's way further down than I go.

Script blocking will probably work most of the time, just as blocking certain urls gets rid of most ads.
