> "Advertisements on the web are fundamentally more coercive than advertisements in the newspaper, so should we regress back to newspapers" Emphatic yes, should adblocking on the web become infeasible. As I said, "Reading more newspapers and books would be more appropriate." As it stands currently, it's possible to see fewer advertisements on the web of any sort than advertisements in newspapers. Web adblockers are currently very effective. Should that change, then I will change my reading habits and so should you. (Of course websites that do not contain advertisements would still be perfectly fine.)
