It reminds me of the scene from Ready Player One when Desmond is saying in his board meeting, saying once they get a hold of the Oracle , that then they can put up to 80% adds on the screen before inducing seizures!!! I always wondered if it was a joke or live dark humor about where the internet is going ..
One thing I've learned from history is that there's plenty of examples of things that happened that writers wouldn't use for fiction because audiences wouldn't believe it.
I sometimes wonder who is willing to put up with this shit if I end up on the internet without an ad blocker. I don't need to put ad blockers on a list of essential tools because the internet without ad blockers reminds me very quickly to go get one.
The fight against ad blockers is IMO actually a fight against having a useful www because the more intrusive an ad is, the more likely I'll just go do something else.
Yeah, I will not be a part of being forced to watch ads. Whatever they do to force ads, there will be a way around it and if a site makes you use chrome so they can force ads, then I won't be doing shit with your site.
My local utility company makes you use chrome to pay your bill online. I call every month and waste someones time taking my payment. I refuse to put up with bullshit.
They shouldn't force you to use a specific web browser to use the website properly. Google Chrome shouldn't be the new Internet Explorer 6.
