Just because you send me malware after some text I wanted to read (in http response), don’t give you rights to force me to execute the malware.

Just because I have your book (or page) and look at part of it doesn’t give you the right to force me to read it in full or dictate how I’m reading it.

I have every right to reveal/read only part of the book/page. We didn’t sign any agreement, if you want me to first look at the part you want to or agree to some license nothing stopping you to do, stuff like paywall or subscription exists…

You can take my ad blockers when you pry them from my cold, dead body.

Fucking fascists.

This has the same energy as shutting your eyes and blocking your ears during a commercial being piracy.

Well that’s dystopian as fuck, ads are a legitimate security threat with the amount of malware, scams, and other shady stuff advertisements online frequent contain.

Edit: Not even a day later there’s a report about Google ads straight up serving malware because of fucking course that happened…

Forcing my computer to display ads infringes on my actual property rights as owner of the machine.

It’s beyond the pale that we’re even contemplating letting Imaginary Property “rights” (read: temporary privileges) trump actual property rights, let alone actually doing it.
