Ad blockers seems to imply that we can do curator without the centralized aspect. Ublock has a couple hundred of lists, each with thousands or more filters. A user choose to enable or disable what they want with no central control.
Further more, the filter itself can be made to limit disclosure of the original data while still providing a binary decision regarding filtering a content or not. Hashing, bloom filters, ai models and so on are common tools for filtering data like emails and link reputation.
Is it possible to use bots or use a riaa enforcement group equivalent to get ad blockers to green lights specific ads? Personally I trust easylist as long the community does so, and would discard it the moment it lost the community trust. That makes it a kind of centralized curator, but also very much not.
