Lol it was some Google employee's job for months to work on this anti AdBlock method and uBlock Origin bypasses it like same day
I will never not read that as magic the gathering, it makes the news so much better
Should clarify this only affects Chromium browsers
then don't buy it
people keep buying it, so why wouldn't they raise the price?
Jesus, at this point over half the country will ban porn because of religious extremists who hate freedom. Fascism and anti free speech.
That's realllly steep for a single app.
For more interesting and easily discoverable content. Really that's what people want at the end of the day.
Wow Reddit can openly and unapologetically shit on their community and they continue to support the site. All of the "fuck spez" content is gone, and they're doing exactly what Reddit wanted in the first place, keeping it corporate and advertiser friendly. What a sad community that can't even defend themselves, this is why the state of things are getting so much worse.
There's actually a lot to look forward to. In fact you're talking on one of those reasons right now.
e2ee is only a recent thing which is significantly more private. You can have an entirely private FOSS operating system that has parity with Windows for free.
The privacy and FOSS ecosystems are thriving more then ever. There are more VPN providers then ever before, and Tor gets better and better.
We have decentralized social media like the fedi which gives complete freedom against corporate control.
We have all sorts of amazing FOSS tools out there. We even have an AI that can be run completely locally and with custom unfiltered models that is very close to competitive with ChatGPT, and also free.
None of these things even existed like 10 years ago, or were in their infancy. They're all competitive to modern corporate alternatives. Privacy alternatives are by far in the best state they've ever been, and they'll just continue to improve as the community grows larger.
We can own all these tools and self host. In fact we've never been able to "own" anywhere near as much as we can today.
Who could have seen this coming except every single semi informed person.
There are no better adblockers, uBlock Origin is all you need and is already updated to bypass it.
