How do you navigate around sites that insist on you removing the ad blocker?

A. F12 and remove the div that says so or one of it's parent.
B. find another website that offer the same thing.
C. give up and temporarily disable adblock for that website until you do what you need to do and enable it again
what I find really annoying is website that tangle login to their ads, so when you have adblock software enabled it just silently fails.
the most recent example I encountered is https://www.edf.fr/ a government owned company, I couldn't get electricity for my new house unless I disabled ublock.
