An adblocker is part on my security suite on my computer.
Ads can be hijacked to spread malware, and unless the site owner agrees to take both financial and legal liability for the possible dammage caused by their website I will never consider removing my adblocker.
If they agreed to take on the responsibility, I still wouldn’t remove my adblocker, but I would consider it.
Ublock origin does a pretty solid job, I’m always mildly horrified when I have to use a browser without it. Is that really what other people see when they browse the web?
Yes. Average people don’t know what an adblocker is or even that there are different browsers. Let alone know how to install an extension. We’re fucked

Ads won’t load if browser literally can’t load em.
Dillo is not a daily driver…but it is occasionally fun to pilot. Breaks on a lot of sites tho…but god damn is it a nice little browser.
