> making millions of USD with donations [Citation needed] >he hired people to run AdBlock and don't work himself anymore. But he is way less transparent about it, than the guys from Adblock Plus. What? Just as the ABP project does outline their whitelisting process, Gundlach openly states the fact that other people get paid. >AdBlock has even closed their public source repository and issue tracker... With the power of your search engines combined: http://code.getadblock.com/releases/ http://code.getadblock.com/releases/ >...to disguise who they are and what they are doing. That's what you might feel and assume. Don't make this into a fact. I already lost too much time with this reply.

But what I said was that they have closed their public source repository (SVN) and issue tracker. >>...to disguise who they are and what they are doing. >That's what you might feel and assume. Don't make this into a fact. So pointing out that AdBlock is tracking you doesn't count as a fact? I think that is something you really don't want to involve your community in.

I think that is something you really don't want to involve your community in. I was referring to your statement of their alleged intentions.
