It is full of ads. 00:45:20 Martin Rice: allrecipes.com has piles of ads 00:46:23 Timothy: PCMAG.COM 00:47:53 Bob Herres: I have ads on allrecipes.com 00:48:46 Timothy: Tom has too many blockers? 00:51:20 Tristan: May have to disable all addons to demo with ads. 00:55:26 Tristan: Here is a nice summary from a post I recently read. Ublock Origin is great for blocking anti-adblocker popups and other eyesores, since it has cosmetic filtering. It can get rid of Youtube ads too, which Umatrix can't do. uMatrix is more like a firewall; uBlock Origin can do similar things in medium/advanced mode, but not with the same fine control uMatrix has. uMatrix is great for blocking third party trackers, and preventing unwanted media and javascript from loading, while still loading images and CSS if you want. 01:01:30 Chris Taylor: I once heard/read: If you can't figure out what the product is at any website, YOU are the product! 01:16:44 Jocelyn Doire: If one wants to exercise their privacy, it's easy, don't go on Facebook, don't buy Alexa, don't get DNA tested... Google, Facebook and others version of data gathering is pretty benign, I can't think of an example where I was adversely effected.
