“Sorry ad-blockers, I assume you mean well and you have a point about page-load times and ads junked up with tracking tools and Trojan horses and the like,” wrote Advertising Age editor Ken Wheaton, recently. “But theft is still theft, even if it's dressed up as some sort of digital Robin Hood act. You're not just interfering with pixels, you're interfering with business.”

Fuck you, Ken, and the Advertising Age horse you rode in on. It is most assuredly not theft, it is self preservation. Only a fatass like yourself would consider we mere mortals protecting our machines from "tracking tools and Trojan horses and the like" as "interfering with business" (as if that's some sort of mortal sin or something). No, it's actually allowing us to survive on the 'net, and maybe even allows us to participate in the business you're blathering on about.
