there are sites where I WOULD HAVE whitelisted them from adblocking if they had not chosen to make them functionally unusable or not stop nag me me. take youtube. I never minded those ad breaks..but that constant box nagging me to try premium is not acceptable. And then they just had to keep ramping up the adds and are now being a big baby trying to wage war on adbocking. Result: no more youtube. ty for convincing me to not even visit anymore -slow clap- good job ahole.

and ever been to a fandom wiki? used to be named "wikia" so that people could confuse their brand with "wiki". so many adds jammed into that thing browsers tend to choke if you aren't adblocking.

I mean sure privacy is great to care about, but nobody even pretends to care about usability.
