Adblockers are killing the advertisement industry.

[lukefromdc@kolektiva.social]

@nazokiyoubinbou @DrewNaylor In my case, I do not publish to the ad supported social media sites or to Youtube/Vimeo/etc. That means instead of "killing the sites I love," adblocking is hopefully helping kill the COMPETITORS to the sites I love.

Mastodon and Archive get a lot more reach if Twitter, FB, Insta, and Youtube roll over and sink

@DrewNaylor Friends don't let friends not have adblockers.

(Me on remote support yesterday, installing uBlock Origin Lite into Chrome)

I wrote my first adblocker in 1999.

@douglaswaynericketts @DrewNaylor are you seeing ads on mastodon.social? If so, you have a computer virus.

[halcy@icosahedron.website]

@DrewNaylor I think the funniest possible computer virus would be one that spreads and other than that just automatically installs ublock origin on every browser it can find, blocks the autoupdate mechanism, then deletes itself

[jonathankoren@sfba.social]

@DrewNaylor it’s the only way to make web useable.

[barubary@infosec.exchange]

@douglaswaynericketts @DrewNaylor Curious! You are very intelligent.

@douglaswaynericketts @DrewNaylor Douglas said, not knowing wtf he was talking about.

[simonzerafa@infosec.exchange]

@DrewNaylor

uBlock Origin lite is also available for Chromium based browsers

[mookie@bunnymotorsports.com]

@douglaswaynericketts @DrewNaylor Huh? Did @Mastodon all the sudden implement advertising?

[esreicht@mastodon.social]

@windsorwindsor2 @superblox @DrewNaylor
Adblocking is just self defense

[stephenboylett@techhub.social]

@DrewNaylor Go one further and try ad nauseum!

[gokushrm@mastodon.social]

@DrewNaylor nobody want ads..so they blocked it ️
There is a device called TV . Ads only delivered to TV.. No in mobile phones

[retrosponge@kind.social]

@DrewNaylor I had cause to browse a single website the other day for about a minute with my ad blocker turned off and my god, how does anyone use this shit anymore?

[mariob@liberdon.com]

@DrewNaylor hillarious.

[canleaf@mastodon.social]

@superblox @DrewNaylor now it is ad slop and nothing can be trusted.

[canleaf@mastodon.social]

@superblox @DrewNaylor what world moving do ad slop content creators do?

[blaecwaeterwelboren@mastodon.social]

@DrewNaylor Or use the Brave browser!

[wavebro@mastodon.social]

@DrewNaylor already done

[icaria36@sonomu.club]

@DrewNaylor Or Privacy Badger. The more the merrier!
