quote [ Google Chrome will soon begin to block ads on some websites by default. I dug up some more information about how it will work. ...Google have announced that their Google Chrome web browser will block every ad on websites that are not compliant with the Better Ads Standards by default. ]
This might shift web advertising and directed support into a new phase. While obnoxious advertising sucks, blocking them is a significant part of why I took up paying folks via Patreon. There's a nice breakdown of the initial set of standards in extended.

Except sometimes the new thing that comes along is the people protesting that abusive system.
I've been imagining the possibilities for VR for a long time, dude. I'm very much aware of the dangers, I think I've been rather annoyingly loud about them for quite some time. ;) It's an arms race. But their vulnerability still lies in the hardware of humanity. As long as we're human there's still potential to be found in our ability to relate to one another, to understand our place in this universe. The right idea gone viral changes everything.
Until a neural lace comes along. Then we're just robot slaves. :D
But until then, until the last human standing is converted into a just another mindless node of the machine. There is still hope.
