Same if they say to disable your ad blocker.
Trust is broken. Ads have been abused where I have to block by default unless I already trust your website.
I'm not risking malware for some strangers advertisements.
Yeah, I agree. I never really minded ads as I just mentally ignore them so I didn’t use an ad blocker for a very long time after it was common practice. I also disagreed with the principle of ad blockers as sites need to pay their expenses.
But then they abused the data that they collected to change people’s political opinions in a way that went way beyond just your standard political ads and that was it for me.
