gollark: The other one I don't block ads on because they're just static image adverts in the sidebar of a blog, so I'm mostly okay with them and my adblocker doesn't get them automatically.

gollark: Ads also come hand-in-hand with the adtech industry's stupid amount of data gathering generally, which I *also* attempt to block.
