Annie@steveroy I'd turn off my ad blocker very quickly if ads weren't completely breaking the reason I visit various websites.
Ricardo Tavares@anniethebruce @steveroy Member when sites just had advertisements as part of their content?

I probably would -I recognise that the revenue helps support the content. However, I do object to targeted ads, being 'followed' around the internet for more targeting and a profile being built up (invasion of privacy and potential civil liberties issue) -it's a kind of online harassment scheme.

Chuck Taggart, Private Eye@steveroy Dear Web Sites and Advertisers Who Put Ads There: What in the name of Ghu makes you think that when you pop up an ad/video/whatever that covers up the content I'm trying to read that I give a single ripe fuck about anything that ad has to say, and why don't you understand that the ONLY thing I want in that moment is to make your ad go away as quickly as possible?

It's not so much the ads, it's the private dic cookies following around taking notes and pix for their client...
'Honest' up front ads I can take, in moderation.

Half Cocked Law@steveroy me: it looks like I'm blocking that script, too.
Flaming June@steveroy Gotta love the helpful suggestions on how to turn off adblockers for this particular site that are much more complicated than simply reading the same story somewhere else.

Stray Bullet@steveroy I should start charging websites a monthly subscription fee for me to turn off adblock.
