i was harsh.. i do in fact know some people who depend on ad revenue to keep servers running. but ads on the internet are generally out of control and i think its a huge bubble, even the ad revenue that my friends rely on is just garbage that i would never want anybody to click on... anyway the main point stands - if you publish an ad blocker it should block ads. suddenly a simple concept gets really complicated when there is an "application process" and set of "criteria" by which ads can be whitelisted -- who defines this criteria? is it always published? am i donating to a project that is actually commercially supported? etc also was anybody else confused by this (from https://adblockplus.org/blog/acceptable-ads-by-the-numbers https://adblockplus.org/blog/acceptable-ads-by-the-numbers): "Over 50 percent [of applicants] rejected because ads not acceptable. In all, we accepted only 9.5 percent of applicants." That math seems weird...
