Yeah, because everyone is asking for that. They will force ads into everything they can, because Google is an Ad company.

It's called "browsing American news websites with internet explorer and no addblocker"

I had to shake my head and rub my eyes, for a second I thought you wrote "doing bareback with a trick you picked up at a shelter"

That still has less consequences than unprotected internet.

We were all fed the lie that ads were a necessity to "pay" for services that were otherwise free to the consumer. Of course, it was always the plan to charge for anything that really took hold, and it was concurrently the plan to throw more and more ads on everything anyway -- it's just now, they're considered normalized.
