This is pretty amazing! People are taking my WordPress plugin that lets you warn site visitors if they don't have an ad-blocking browser plugin installed, and making versions of the project for non-WordPress sites.

It stands to reason that if you want to get a hold of a lot of data, which technically has value, your job would be the devalue said data as much as possible.

This is what happened to the #internet citc 2000, when #ads covered every single page like a plague of locusts. Your eyeball time was devalued.

Then, #Facebook basically devalued your personal information by making it normal to give all of it away.

Now Facebook wants $10 to remove ads, but not #tracking.

Probably not the best place to run an ad? First thought after loading https://killedbygoogle.com was "Damn, Google bought Okta and killed off one of Okta's products already?"
