It seems so stupid that I’m like a suspect for wanting an exchange of information without dropping my pants and bending over. No, I don’t want cookies. Yes I want to read the article but no, I don’t want to “sign up.”

It makes me feel like being a f*cking hermit. But I prefer to pirate. Even though I’m not that good at it. Screw them. I got two private trackers, a VPN, and I hope that’s enough.

    Anyone who considers adblocking immoral shouldn’t block anykind of advertising anywhere.

      Where did you get that it was immoral from? I don’t see many (anyone?) that have claimed that.

        If someone claims adblocking is form of piracy they are also claiming its immoral or bad thing to do. I doubt someone making claim like that would have anything nice to say about piracy.

        I mean, why else would people speak against adblocking if they didnt think it was somehow “immoral” or otherwise negative thing to do.

          No. Making a claim that adblocking is a form of piracy does not in any way say that either piracy nor adblocking is immoral. Only if they actually make a claim that piracy is immoral can it be transferred like that.

          You also seem to make the claim that anyone equating adblocking and piracy are speaking against them. Why are you making such a claim?

          Also *it’s, *didn’t. It’s not that hard.

            I’m just so tired and annoyed about people wanting to restrict adblocking in anyway, so I guess i assume things too easily. I consider being able to not see ads my inherent right.

              Oh, absolutely. And it’s just gotten worse with the intrusiveness and amount of ads everywhere. Piracy also seems to become the only way to avoid far too much data collection about us as well.
