One of the french IT news website I read detects adblockers and replace the space of the ad with a message saying, basically, « This space was supposed to be an ad. We respect the fact you block it, consider making a donation » (or something like that, it’s not showing on my phone right now so I guess it’s for the desktop version)
I find this very smart. Not intrusive and a bit incentive.

I don't think they detect the ad blocker here - they just put that image underneath the image/iframe of the ad, so that if the top image is blocked, the bottom image is visible.
