Modern web bloat means some pages load 21MB of data - entry-level phones can't run some simple web pages, and some sites are harder to render than PUBG

      Yup. If websites respected me, I’d respect them back and not need uBlock Origin.

        No corporate website respects you in the slightest, they are just greedy for your metrics.

          Yup, hence why uBlock Origin stays on.

      Agreed.

      People seem to forget that in the past you didn’t run a constant antivirus on your computer constantly, and would just occasionally run a scan if suspicious activity happened. At least until malicious web activity became so bad and everyone HAD to run antivirus.

      We are approaching that point for web blockers.
