They'll Fight Harder To Get You To See The Ads Than You Will To Not See Them
-
This has been going on for a while, but the makers of top ad blocker AdBlock Plus are still deep in negotiations with several major advertisers with the aim of helping them evade ad blocking... for a price. Seems a little like extortion, but if it isn't, there are two sides to this: one, should an ad blocker let some ads through if the advertiser pays (and thus defeats the whole point of an ad blocker)? And two, as much as you may be annoyed by ads, how else are websites supposed to support themselves? You want everything for free- who's gonna pay the people (ahem) who create the content? (Yahoo!
