This is really annoying. I don't want to update my phone to iOS 9 until a jailbreak is out, and my old phone is an iPhone 4S so I can't try out ad blockers on it.

I don't think I've ever come across a legitimate website using a certificate issued by CNNIC. It's probably okay to just distruct it altogether.

I should just reduce the price of LAX-SFO and SFO-PDX accordingly, so that the cost of LAX-SFO-PDX is the sum of LAX-SFO and SFO-PDX. If I can afford to carry the passenger through LAX-SFO-PDX for $190, then I can afford to carry her LAX-SF
