im p sure some of the biggest adblockers monetize themselves by allowing companies to buy their way onto the default safe/allowed whitelist

iirc I believe it was AdBlock (or AdBlock plus?) that was sold to some shady russian or somethign company that does this by letting companies pay 2 whitelist.

that's why everyone should uninstall that garbage and install uBlock Origin, it's actually good and legit with non of that garbage. sadly a lot of people are stuck in their ways, like people are still using like utorrent even tho it was sold to some chinese company and they installed bitcoin miners and adware in it and there's no reason not to just use qbittorrent.

“I understand Samsung is trying to make it easy for the user, but I don’t like that it does not allow me to uninstall,” he said. For his next phone, he said he’ll consider buying something else.

except for the part where they admitted it can't be uninstalled because of their distribution agreement with facebook, yeah.

i hope you at least get a choice of which detention center to report to after watching several advertisements for each one, and then going with the cheapest one anyway because the rest are orders of magnitude more expensive

theres a lot of nimbyism in the rural counties re: people buying rvs or tiny houses and cheap land in costilla county. so they're now gatekeeping by requiring a $20k sewer install and a $10k water well in place before you can even summer in your RV on your own land

this is probably a good idea

not to mention it's not like $50k is an unimaginable investment for your vacation property. beats building a house.
