Wait, does this load the full webpage first? It seems like it from the how it works explanation. Because, in that case I'm not sure it does fit the criteria it proposes. Instead, what it should do is keep a list of domains which are known to be ad supported, and then when the browser would send a page request for a page on that site, would instead not do that. Why are you downloading the page if you aren't contributing towards the hosting costs by viewing the ads? That is stealing just as much as you would be if you had any other adblocker running!* No, it should /detect/ that the page is ad supported, but load it anyway the first time, and then block subsequent requests to the page all subsequent times! * i.e. : not. note: I don't run any adblock software other than a flashblock thing. If enough ads go to html5 video I might do something else though. Like only use webpages which don't use an unethical ad network.
