And here I thought that the people who insist on counting every pirated song download as a theft of revenue were crazy.

I found somebody crazier!

The first link there is the site itself, the second is a reddit discussion thereof. Basically the site claims that anybody who uses firefox's adblock is stealing revenue from the sites the visit, as they're not viewing the ads, therefore they can't click the ads, nor buy the stuff, thus the stealing.

I don't know about you, but I NEVER click on unsolicited ads when I see them, so my not seeing the ads makes no difference whatsoever in my clicking and buying. Heck, my not seeing ads is saving them badwidth, not costing them money!

Stupid people.

Oh, they also say firefox (yes, the browser) is a religion. http://www.populartechnology.net/2005/01/firefox-new-religion.html

And if there's something I just MUST see on such a site, well, it's not like you can uninstall Internet Explorer from a computer, so I do still have it lying around.

IE is uninstallable on MacOS and Linux...
