I wish, but I don’t see it happening. Most people are just content with seeing ads absolutely everywhere, I just don’t get it.

I wouldn’t mind the basic shit like a banner here or a side bar there. But the fucking obnoxious mid page ads, auto playing videos, scam link shit can go die in a hole.

It’s things like this that keep me using an ad blocker. I was researching when sunflowers develop their seeds, for crying out loud. Edit: this was on Opera. It’s… fine.

I used to not mind them, now I do. They over did it and I can’t go back. I will block ads untill I can’t and then I’ll probably climb a clock tower with an Uzi.

I won’t really climb a clock tower with an Uzi.

Since those are semi-regularly vectors for malware now, even those are not safe to allow.
