> By themselves, ads aren't the real problem --- personalized ads are the problem.

I don't even care about that, what gets my goat is that ads pileup significantly slow down pages and increase energy consumption; and sites still get plastered to unreadability.




Me neither. I don't want to see any ad, of any kind. And that's the case currently, on FF with uBock Origin. I never see an ad anywhere, ever, and if one slips through I can block it in the future.

I can't imagine anything different. I'm prepared to go to great lengths to preserve that status quo... although IDK exactly what those could be.


Yeah data and battery savings are a huge benefit of adblocking.
