Bypassing Google's big anti-adblock update

Even if bigs exists to work around what Google is doing, that isn’t the right way forward. If people don’t agree with Google move, the only correct course of action is to ditch Chrome (and all Chromium browsers). Hit them where it hurts and take away their monopoly over the future direction of the web.

Hit then where it hurts would be political action, not individuals switching to Firefox, that does nothing.

In a democracy it’s actually the other way around, over time at least. Politicians follow votes.

> Politicians follow votes.

we have enough data to show that this is not the case, in general.

Perhaps a better way to phrase it is to simply say that politicians are elected, and are nothing without votes.

A politician isn’t even a practicing politician without votes. Democracy is ultimately driven by citizens. Of course politicians will do their best to influence public opinion (it’s their job) but are ultimately in service to it though elections.

It’s why what people think (and vote) matters in a democracy.

And back to the point, why voting with your feet (switching to Firefox) actually means something.
