they are the ones subsidizing the Internet for the rest.

>>62259880
But who are they? Who in this day and age is so clueless they don't know what adblock is? I'm guessing third world trash and women.

>>62259932
Waht about grampas and chads?

>>62259980
Are grandpas and chads the only people retarded enough to actually click on ads?

>>62259932
Normies that are satisfied with stuff that just works

>>62259932
I have no clue. Even my tech-literate friends had no idea about ublock or anything like it.

>>62259932
why is so hard to realize that most out there are fucking mouthbreaters and they don't give a shit?
why do you think google and facebook are raking in the ad cash?
also don't you have older relatives? think they would have it installed if you didn't do it for them?
from what i've heard, a surprising amount of millennials fall for a lot of the shit you'd think only old fuckers would.

Go to Walmart, Target, or Costco, or the beach, or the mall, or the driver licensing office. Look around at the people around you. That's who.

Probably has something to do with the surge of phonefags from the third world. A lot of people in developing countries don't have PCs. They reach the web with mobile and it's harder to block shit that way.

>>62260023
By far this is the stupidest shit ever

>>62260100
how so?

>>62259861
The same Idiots that make the sites we use every day free to use
Reminder that if EVERYONE in the world used adblock then every website you visit (even "linux approved" ones) would have a paywall to enter.

>>62260202
And then we'd have paywall blocker instead of ad blocker.

>>62259861
Maybe the other 89% use other less shitty adblocks?

Ex: U-block Origin

>>62260202
>implying people won't figure out ways how to either share paywalls, break past paywalls, or bypass them completely.

The only threat would be if ISPs forced paywalls, but everyone knows ISPs don't give a shit about content creators/owners.

they won't bother installing even if they know about adblocks. I've even heard arguments where they go far as to say they like the ads.

>>62260202
I want paywalls. It is an infinitely better relationship than dealing with ads. Not to mention enthusiasts can just do donation drives to keep the servers up.

why is it that adblock and ublock origin still suck dick at blocking certain ads?

Mobile users. It's slightly more difficult to install adblock on a phone, so normalfags don't bother.

Normies.

>>62262830
Pretty sure there's an app for android that acts as a proxy for your connection to the internet and blocks ads this way, without needing root.

Also the problem with rooting is not bricking but loss of warranty, along with some apps refusing to work after detecting root.

>>62260202
No, we need a purely decentralized p2p internet. That means no server costs for hosting a website and no reason for ads or paywalls to exist.

Of course you'd have to offer some disk space to browse it.

There's no question. There's statement. By me. The Internet we use is more than just a bunch of static files served by web servers. Literally every site people care about with exception of personal blogs can't be served by the system that the anon is proposed, the distributed storage where you provide some of your hard drive capacity in order to use the network.

snowball on a slippery slope, ads already lost, the more they push the acceptable ads agenda, the bigger the network effect will be.

SOPA was about trying to put paywalls on sites so what you said just now is moot. If there is a way for corporations to jew you out of your money then they'll try to take it.

>>62259861

Although having the user leave the site instead of disabling the adblocker is the less desirable of the two options, it's still preferable to letting people walk all over their website consuming bandwidth and server resources while not contributing anything.

>>62259861
Only 11% of internet uses adblock but the ads are on by default and majority of people don't know they can block ads have no option to not receive them or think it's too hard.

Only 30% of Microsoft users minimized telemetry data retrieval on microsoft end trough settings but the truth is all the settings are on from the install and often reset back after a feature update.

You see - citzens want to be surveyed :^) - even tho for most of them it's the option it started with and had no choice to begin with but the fact that they are ok with gives more room for companies and agencies to survey even more.

The problem with not using default-deny is that, although you can clean up afterwards, you will still have loaded all the junk once and you have already been tracked etc. I think some people forget that content blocking is as much about privacy/security as it is blocking nuisances these days.

And some fucking gay college grandson took pity on them and showed them how to get on fb, and all of a sudden they have an outlet for all the entitlement and hatred they felt since they god sacked that one time by some immigrant who actually went to school and FUCK YOU!, and that's the end of Western civilization.

I love watching ads. I can literally watch banners for hours. This is a true joy for me. I don't ever use adblockers, just a simple pop-up blocker. I can't describe how much I love ads. Ads are love, ads are life.

I remember I found out about ad blockers back in 2007, in the days of Adblocker Plus.
At first I was using them, then over the years I've seen more and more mentions of it on the internet and I knew it was slowly going to get big and change the internet. I stopped using it because of this. I rely on a lot of sites which depend on ads to stay online and I choose to support them in this manner. Plus I don't need an ad blocker to stay safe on the web.

It's astonishing to me that 10 years have passed since then and only 11% of internet users heard about them.

I don't use any kind of adblocker on my main browser even though I am quite aware of their existence. Ads, for the most part, are non-intrusive and sometimes even useful to me. I am also the kind of autist that wants to do everything himself so the 'adblocker' I use on my secondary browser is a script I wrote myself to block ads on some porn sites that have particularly nauseating pop-ups.

>>62259861
Mobile users make up the majority of internet traffic, so mobile users.
