> it looks at the struggle between advertising and ad blockers as fundamentally a security problem That's weird. I don't think ads are an issue of security in the same way as malware or whatnot. Ads are still, whether we like it or not, the way things still work for things getting paid. The Internet causes its use...

The point is you have to have a huge so before the size of Qt is insignificant. Fine for CAD, word processing, IDEs etc. But a text editor will end up 52 MB, a terminal emulator 51 MB, a messaging app, 53 MB etc. If they had used a lighter framework they would be lot smaller. But sadly there aren't really any lighter ...

I work in the industry.

Does not matter - the ad-mafia will lose this battle. Why? Because Browser vendors such as Mozilla or AdCompany-Google need to decide whether they will stand with the users or whether they will unite with the mafia against the users, just as Tim Berners-Lee did when he wrote his eulogy as to why DRM is super-awesome.

Yes, they will send their lobbyist-hitmen but it still does not matter - they need to pull anti-people law through with massive corruption to attempt to forbid ad-blocking. It will not work - The People are not the slaves of the lobbyists's mafia.

I even tried doing a "blacklist" method of ad-blocking where I only turned ad-block on for sites with bad ads, until I realised that I was turning it on for 95% of the sites I visited. Now I just make an attempt to turn it off for sites that I visit regularly and don't serve bad ads.

Nobody needs the things that you mentioned. The ONLY reason why people used the free variant is because it was convenient. And they ALREADY pay with it - through the data that google collects and spies onto them. Facebook does it too. They all do - so please stop with the "they do not pay for it" bullshit.

Actually it is still pretty nice - people could selectively enable or disable how much ad-blocking they want, at the price of slower loading. That is still much better than no ad-blocking at all whatsoever. Or semi-complete ad-blocking.

Most advanced ad agencies are already doing this, and google is pretty capable of it, and already doing it in certain situations. The problem is the agencies who set a very broad filter (like "all males age 18-35") and just put huge bids on it, so they get shown often, even if it's less relevant. Google already priori...

Yeah - these guys have already sold out to the industry since they do not aim for 100% ad-blocking. It is a shame - they decided to side with the mafia.

Of course consumers win if ad-blocking is complete. None of your "arguments" has been valid so far.
