Essendo un fruitore abituale dei servizi della Rete (penso banalmente ai portali di informazione di vario genere) mi imbatto spesso in un dilemma etico: usando un #adblock privo quei siti della loro – spesso – unica fonte di guadagno; il che è indubbiamente vero. Però allo stesso tempo mi domando: perché dovrei accettare il compromesso di pubblicità invasive e traccianti oltre ogni immaginazione, cookie, popup, m3rda di ogni genere? (Continua)

First up! Our top tip for everyone starting to care about being tracked online is to install a content blocking extension in their browser, and the best choice is uBlock Origin.
Advertisements aren’t just annoying, they are one of the most prevalent attack vectors on the internet. Minimizing the amount of content you are downloading and running makes you much safer, and it speeds up your browsing at the same time! 😄

@nitot Je suppose que c'est sur un iPad. J'évite de naviguer avec l'application LinkedIn sur iPad et iPhone pour cette raison. Sur mon ordinateur, Adblock Orange nettoie tout cela très bien :-)
@nitot Ces filtres semblent fonctionner.. pour le moment :
linkedin.com# #a[data-view-name="feed-actor-image"] + a:has(p:has-text(Promoted)):upward(2)
linkedin.com# #a[data-view-name="feed-actor-image"] + a:has(p:has-text(Sponsorisé)):upward(2)
linkedin.com# #a[data-view-name="feed-actor-image"] + a:has(p:has-text(Promoted)):upward(3)

> The key legal question here is: Does modifying how a website displays through browser-side tools like ad blockers count as breaking the [copyright] law?
This is ridiculous. There are so many ways to display a #webpage. So, would using custom #CSS also violate the #law? Or using a browser like Lynx that just shows the text? Or viewing raw HTML? If anything, it's the raw #code that should be copyrighted. #ad #adblock #legal #internet #netzpolitik #browser #copyright

Top German court says maybe the Web should be more like television in order to protect copyright
Back in 2022, Walled Culture wrote about a legal case involving ad blockers. These are hugely popular programs: according to recent statistics, around one billion people use ad blockers when they are online. That’s a testament to the importance many people attach to being in control of their browser experience, and to a wide dislike of the ads they are forced to view. The 2022 case concerned […]

Question blocage de pubs : si je veux bloquer les pubs sur une TV samsung (et autres téléphones qui se trouvent dans la maison), sans rentrer dans l'installation d'un serveur pi hole (que je n'ai pas) ni d'une solution compliquée (je ne suis pas un expert technique), il me reste quelle solution ?
Je pensais à un DNS qui fait le job pour moi, mais j'imagine que les solutions sont payantes ?
Bref, #help :)
Peut-être @sebsauvage aurait une idée?
