While I initially agreed, the idea that only google whitelisted ads would be connected is one of the things wrong with the modern web.

Google has too much control over what gets seen on the web, both blocking content that doesnt pay their extortion and pushing rubbish we dont want because it has paid said extortion.. yet there is definitely a need to block malicious content - as far away from the end user as possible.

Third party filters are also a problem - just who is trustworthy?

Too hard for me, think I want to take up gardening
