> blocking ads as a concept Problem is, ads now are trackers. Of course, there are few ads that are not. I also won't mind if the ads are static images (that are not generated from/linked to 3rd-party/trackers) and unable to click on. Thing is, those are just rare, and in practice blockers can't block them by default, because they are not distinguishable with other contents. So in general, those are not blocked, and blocking "ads" (the ads that are trackers) is still ethical to me. And just FYI, blockers have the rule that don't block self-promotions (self-advertisements) by default.
