Detect ONLY uBlock Origin adblocker (Vue)

I'm using MoonPay for crypto purchasing in my Vue app, but uBlock Origin is blocking its IP address detection which blocks it from loading.

It doesn't seem to be an issue on other adblockers, so I'd like to display a message to the user if the user has uBlock Origin installed, however the issue doesn't seem to occur with other adblockers.

Is there a way to detect any one single adblocker, or a package which can return a string of the adblocker currently active?

Solution

  • as @ShadowRanger suggested, I've solve this by catching the Axios error from the blocked third-party resource fetch and displaying a modal to the user to alert them to the problem.
