German freemail sites trick Firefox and Chrome users into removing AdBlock
As someone that has been involved in online publishing for over 10 years I have a strong opinion about ad blockers.<p>In my opinion using ad blockers is borderline piracy. Refusing the content creator his revenue by blocking his ads is little different than downloading music, books... without rewarding the creator. On top of that most of the quality content this days is on websites that have decent ads.<p>I am not trying to start a dispute if piracy is good or bad just wanted to express an opinion on ad blockers that many seem to miss.
