@Widdfam EP. #8 pt. 2 with @serpenteyesdub https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1881972952 with me swinging meteor hammers to it. I put out a new mix every day! None of the music is mine but my friends’.

<types in safari> But what about Apple?!?! Can’t they strong arm this?

So what it boils down is companies are going to try to cut off their user base if they don’t view ads? People will complain they can’t view their page and cancel their subscription? Nobody’s going to willingly install a browser that won’t let you install an adblocker, right?

Can someone explain how the server is going to know whether or not the client browser is showing the ad? A stealthy browser would say, “hey yeah send that ad so I can render it to the user” and the server says, “yeah ok” and then <doesntRenderAdOnClientDevice>. How is the server going to know whether the ad is displayed or not? Don’t current gen adblockers not even retrieve the asset? If the asset was retrieved but not displayed, how (if even) can this be monitored?
