at this moment, if anyone pays google enough they will serve the result on top no matter what they serve. So if you want to survive malware, please enable an ad

  Some months ago when the Paramount+ streaming service launched in Latin America the top Google Result in Argentina was for a fake site that imitated the original and stole credit card numbers. The domain seemed 100% legit except that it wasn’t the real one.

  Don’t just enable it for yourself, but all your friends and family too. Sneakily installing an adblocker without consent is within my realm of ethics.

    Install Pihole and set your home's wifi AP to use it as the default DNS. It's the only way to get universal adblocking in all browsers (until DNS-over-HTTPS ruins everything) and more importantly in phone apps. Fortunately most phone apps are just wrappers around the native browser, so it works great in most of the ones I use (e.g. BBC News). It's a great way to help everyone in your home without having to install stuff on all their devices.

      heads up for pihole. I cannot,for the sake of my sanity, run internet without ublock and pihole. I teach all my friends and family how to install ublock origin. If not for gorhill and pihole the internet is an absolute abomination of fb/google/media sites where everywhere u go, someone is holding a big billboard in your face. And god forbid if u block ads they guilt u to feel u are stealing from them.
