Comment Comment by Workaccount2 ABP, the original uBlock Origin, saw the writing on the wall a decade ago or whenever and tried to mediate a truce between users and advertisers.ABP would allow through ads that weren't egregious, and users could provide compensation for content they consumed.People however either can't read or can't comprehend the writing on the wall, so instead they rioted against ABP and moved to uBlock Origin.I know there are so many bad and greedy things that companies do. And we also talk about them a lot.But we almost never talk about how greedy the end users are. And you cannot solve problems without understanding the full problem. parent Workaccount2 1 year ago
