Eyeo says it [..] wants "user empowerment"
We had user empowerment. We used to be able to install AdBlock and we would have no ads.
Now I install Adblock and I still get ads - the one you're paid to let through. That is a reduction in my empowerment.
So I uninstalled Adblock and I now use Ublock Origin which bloacks ads and hasn't sold out. How's that for empowerment ?
