AdBlock Plus teams up with Flattr to help readers pay publishers
The ad blocking business is getting too cozy with the advertising business. Time to disrupt it again.<p>The Adblock people claim they're going to collect a half billion dollars a year in voluntary payments.  Has anybody in the history of voluntary payments for software ever collected half a billion dollars?  The American Red Cross collects about $700 million a year.  Somehow, I expect that Adblock's system will not be "voluntary".
