Doing some tests on wowhead loading the site with no extensions vs having MonkeyBroker completely blocked with uBlock+extra is a difference of almost 500 requests. Many of these requests include not just ads but tracking scripts and some very bloated javascript that keeps your browser in connection with an ad bidding service refreshing ads periodically. The network tab of Chrome, which shows request activity, data transfers etc, generally never settles down when MB is active because it's constantly requesting and pulling down new stuff.
I'm not an ad professional but I can find literally no reason to prefer this company over any other mainstream ad service. It's impossible to make an objective comparison because MB seems to take extreme steps to remain anonymous, which is a huge red flag for a supposed 'advertising company'. They don't even have contact info if you wanted to request product info or sign up with them, which makes me reallly curious how ZAM seems to have such a cozy relationship with them.
Wowhead and ZAM staff seem to avoid answering any questions about MB directly and instead have said they are going to work with them to target individual ads and continue to get around adblockers.
An apology of your actions of late would also help. We will pay if you would get rid of all traces of Monkeybroker.
