  • Surprised the rates of adblocking is so high! I thought it was a little more niche.

    Also surprised that the article didn't mention manifest v3 rolling out later this year to Chrimium-based browsers - which will effectively end adblocking in all browsers except Firefox.

    Google isn't stupid, they know that ad blocking undermines their business. And Google controls Chromium: the backbone of almost all browsers. So of course they're going to engineer it to prevent ad blocking. It was only a matter of time.

    Unpopular opinion: home automation is overblown. Except for the disabled or edge cases the convenience these solutions add are comparable to the inconvenience they bring (added expensive, harder to maintain, repair, replace, etc).

    I'll get out of bed to turn off the lights.
