Detecting Addblockers in Unity
In Unity is there a way to detect if the game player is using an addblocker? The goal is to either have the user disable the addblocker or restrict the game play.

I assume you're talking about WebPlayer / WebGL games here.
I believe that Ad Blocker Detection works by checking (client side) for any modification of the webpage (i.e. modification to CSS etc). Unity does allow for browser -> game communication:

It may be possible for you to create a bit of JavaScript which will detect the ad blockers and feed that information back in. A possible starting point: http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/jquery-detect-ads-block/
What about Android and other mobile platforms. Is there a way to check for adblockers on these in Unity as well?
