I view ads as toxic and bad for my health Absolutely. The online advertising industry blew their goodwill with gross carelessness years ago, and have only continued to make things worse as revenues fall. Fuck 'em all. Aside from a handful of sites I can count on one hand, I'll never browse without an adblocker again. If innovations like this audio blocker catch on and start to kill podcasts too, well...sorry. Unfortunate collateral damage I guess. The strange thing to me is people expressing that they'd rather block ads, but they're too noble to do so, so they get mad at others for blocking ads? Uh, okay? I think most of the people doing this are playing the troll contrarian card and fishing for responses.
