Do you collect any stats for overall ads blocked?, I wonder how much $$ damage you did to Google finances since you launched your extensions on Chrome and Firefox.
- aw3c2 7y agoThere is no damage being done by ad blocking, please don't use such language.
- guuhv 7y agoThat depends on whether you consider "lost income" to be damage. If I had a webpage or an ad business, for me it would be damage.
- lousken 7y agoThen you could start calculating things like - if a malicious ad spread ransomware and it hit some company and its network... etc.
- justinjlynn 7y agoNobody is giving me money, I consider this to be lost income, therefore everyone is doing me damage. /s
- justinjlynn 7y agoIn all seriousness though, this line of thinking is, at best, going to feel like constant victimisation if one engages in it far too often. Don't be surprised if people don't go out of their way to give you money they don't have to give you in order to get what they want in the way they want it. Lost revenue refers to revenue you could've captured if you had done things differently, so do them differently. If there's any damage done, it's damage you did to yourself.
