  • Publication number: 20160239880
    Abstract: A method and associated system removes identifiable attributes from displayed advertising content, and instead locates these attributes within the isolated memory area that is accessible only the embedded Javascriptâ„¢. Steps are taken to ensure that the displayed advertising content is correctly formatted, and Javascriptâ„¢ routines are used to emulate the normal interactive functionality of the ad. Because the identifiable attributes of the ad content are now located in the isolated world of the embedded Javascriptâ„¢, it is not possible for a web browser plugin executing in isolated world to access them. In this way, it becomes impossible for an ad blocking tool to automatically identify and remove such advertising content.
