I like your answer more than what I was gonna type up :P

Up until a couple days ago, I was using uBO & PrivacyBadger in tandem. Maybe I'll back to that, as I sit closer to your viewpoint vs giving ads any revenue stream. It's kinda in the same realm as why I'd buy a game using CDKeys vs pirating/torrenting. It's a morally grey area that makes it somewhat redeemable, but the point still stands. In AdNauseum's case, ~~you really can't tell what ads are clicked on and therefore don't know what any revenue stream is going in to which pockets~~ you can inspect the ads it clicks on after the fact, but the money for said clicks still go somewhere, even if it's in the fraction of a fraction of a cent.

Heh, I may just switch back. Thanks?... Yeah, thanks!
