Not asking for tech support here, just wondering if in theory it would be possible to create a plug-in or even a complete browser that blocks ads in a way that’s impossible to detect. One model that comes to mind is a quarantined / containerized non-blocking virtual browser which queries the web server directly, then the UX filters the content from that container and presents it to the user ad-free. As far as the web server can tell, the containerized browser is just vanilla Chromium.

    Bleak but probably true. Cabin in the woods with a good book is my future.

    What do you mean all the woods are “gone”?

      Paper books won’t be available either. You’ll be watching ads in your cabin where the woods used to be.
