Let me try: How about a variant of your "selling food to neighbors idea"? Build a platform where people can organize local "cooking clubs" (like meetup.com for cooking). You can find other people in your area who like to

Same here, was kind of a early adopter in 2015 and I really want to like them, but they're making it very hard if not impossible. For a startup that wants to disrupt banking, they have horrible UX (one example, when it was time to chan

I think the lawsuits started before Eyeo introduced the whitelist? But imagine if uBO was used by 90% of all Users, so the big publishers would notice and lobby to get ad-blocking banned, there would be no one to defend it then. Or if googl

As I commented above, I think they're providing a service with fighting law-suits for ad-blocking. I use ublock origin myself, but I don't think my parents will ever install it or even read about it. And a company with an interest

They are a company so they have to make money (Most of HN readers should relate to that). Some of this money is also used to fight law-suits, keeping ad blocking legal (at least in germany [1]), something a free solution like ublock origin
