I block ads because they're annoying and I resent being sold something constantly. I have no qualms doing it because what I choose to do with the HTML I freely receive from a server on my own private computer is no one else's business. If websites want to force me to view ads, they can get me to sign a contract and compensate me for it.
- cloudjacker 10y agoI block ads because my niches are small enough communities that I only see ads about the last thing I googled And that's annoying in more ways than one, being reminded so blatantly that you are being tracked well enough to identify individually
- whamlastxmas 10y agoUse startpage.com. I only ever use Google for image searches now.
- newscracker 10y agoI use startpage too, but it also has ads. It just claims not to log or track, which is better.
