      Literally told people to expect this if they keep using chrome and now they are in disbelief, more so when I send them the screen cap of me telling them to expect it.

        But why would an ad company want to block ad blockers? That makes no sense…

    Use Firefox.

    This is the easiest problem to solve.

      There was a time not too long ago where I would have just assumed a move this clearly douchey and against your customers’ desires would lead to nothing but a complete evacuation of those customers, but I’ve seen this movie play out enough times to know that somehow, someway, this will work out just fine for them. People will complain, swallow it whole, keep on using it, and finally just forget about it.

    Imagine using you power to "vote for "/support/give power to a company who says it’s gonna kill all ad-blockers to monopolise the ad market even further … and then complain about the exact thing happening.

    Using Chrome (or other Google products) is just supporting and enabling that.
    If people didn’t use it, none of it would have happened.

    That alone would be why it’s good if they had to sell it.

      The only issue with forcing them to sell it is Mozilla will lose most of its income stream. Hopfully selling it causes much branching making it harder to target firefox in making websites uncompatable.
