It's like receiving free news every morning, but you have ordered a kid who delivers them to cut out ads.
- jaggederest 13y agoThat's actually completely fine. You're allowed to do that. Personally I use the free newspapers they unwarrantedly deliver to my house as a firestarter.

- dylangs1030 13y agoActually, you are explicitly allowed to decide what the site does, insofar as display is concerned. If it's client-side, you can do what you want. And blocking ads does get people somewhere - a less annoying internet. As for your analogy...again, you're allowed to do that.
- sp332 13y agoActaully, the HTML of the "newspaper" directs my browser to connect to a bunch of other sites to download the sales flyers separately. I simply decline to fetch the ads. It's not like the website "puts ads in" and I "cut them out".
