I never blocked ads until a couple years ago, when a rogue banner ad tried to throw malware at me. Luckily my antivirus caught it before any harm was done

SwampRat
21:07:55
I use Ublock Origin on my desktop
Serenak
21:08:13
Adverts can be good… Who remembers the old Mac User? People used to moan it was half ads… when the ads started to fall away the mag got only half as interesting

Serenak

and then the point of having it if you also had the internet was gone
Serenak
21:09:28
I use AdBlockPro and Crystal on iOS and I use Ghostery and ABP on the Mac
paulums
21:09:47
Thanks Serenak
SwampRat
21:10:18
I'll turn off my ad blocker once I can be guaranteed no malware injection attempts vis an ad
Serenak
21:10:19
to stop the overpowering ads

and to block all the trackers and shit that eats my battery and dater

data
Serenak
21:15:43
never use free wifi without using at the least a free VPN
windrider
21:16:11
Serenak, that’s why I have Opera VPN app on iOS.
Serenak
21:16:20
TunnelBear and Hotspot Shield offer decent free versions
Serenak
21:16:41
yea Opera offer a good solution too
Serenak
21:17:33
personally I think that Apple, MS and others should offer a decent VPN option by default
paulums
21:17:41
I love Opera
windrider
21:18:56
Opera on the Mac has a sort of VPN built in.
Serenak
21:19:30
yes I know it does
SwampRat
21:19:35
<< Leaves the chat room
Serenak
21:19:50
but I still say Apple and MS etc should offer a basic VPN by default
Serenak
21:20:17
even if they nickel and dime you a few pennies a month for the privilige
Serenak
21:22:08
don’t most boilers have an “override” to on switch?
campionuk
21:22:53
They usually do Serenak, I think issue is most people are so reliant on the thermstat they dont know how to overide
Serenak
21:23:15
