Instead of blocking them, this extension speeds them up to x16 and also mutes the ad. Experiencing a 30 second ad in 2 seconds is pretty funny. And it works on Edge and Chrome.

Aaaah, the very sign of a simple mind.
(abolitionists circa 1800) IMO slavery should be banned, and before anyone responds, no I don’t give a shit about the consequences of a change that substantial.
Some things are simple and don’t require a nuanced take. I’m not saying ads are anywhere near as important as slavery but the consequences are smaller too. Thinking something is an unmitigated negative and should be got rid of regardless of consequences is a legitimate position.
How would getting rid of ads work? Like logistically? Is a fancy box for your product an ad? Is eye-level placement of a product on a shelf an ad? Is the make and model branding in a vehicle an ad?
I would love to see less ads, or no ads, I’ve done all I can to remove them from my life entirely, but the magic wish kind of removal of them seems… impossible
It would work the way the internet worked before google and facebook monetised monitoring everyone to sell ads, people who want a website paying to host it, and if they are a company charge for whatever they are selling.
