How about we just don't let the advertising industry develop or fund our browsers and web standards? Users need to be able to control what kind of content their device will load and display, so it's probably time to develop technology that supports it (and scrap the current web, which is now basically billboard ads for the internet).
- tomaskafka 7y agoDon't let them. Use Firefox or Safari instead of Chrome or Edge.
- lazyjones 7y agoI use Safari, Firefox/Mozilla is wholly dependent on money from the ad industry (Google). But Safari also goes in the direction the ad industry desires through its adoption of new standardized features. There is really no way out using the current "web", we need a simple, open alternative that isn't controlled by the ad industry and adopts only features in the best interest of the users first and content creators second.
