    The fact that this is even remotely controversial is stunning. Like does google not understand its not just home users that use adblock, but also businesses as well? Because google is so fucking bad they don’t understand there are viruses in their fucking ads. If this shit goes through, you think anyone’s dumb enough to believe google will be on top of the virus shit? Fuck off google

      ya, using the internet without an adblocker is a security risk because Google enables scams across its services.

      How about they learn to clean house first before shitting on the internet lol.

      incompetent company will do incompetent things.

        I think the FBI recommends the use of ad blockers for personal safety, let me find that link real quick…

          Let’s just go back to the good old days when the web worked without JS. That would remove a massive amount of attack surface. Might seem a bit shit without the interactivity, though.

      You really think they don’t exactly know what they are doing?

      They are an ad and data company, you blocking anything isn’t something they want to make possible.
