People up in arms by Mozilla acquiring an advert company, okay then.
I get it, but, the internet is literally funded by adverts. No normal person can afford to sub to even half the sites they read. Adverts are, sadly, essential. Unless you want more paywalls and less people do cool stuff.
At least with Mozilla, there may *actually* be some privacy involved.
