That's not my goal. My goal is to eliminate unsolicited advertising.
I don't want it, and if websites have to find other, non-advertising-based business models to support themselves, so be it.

This mostly just makes it so less tech savvy users would have to be exposed to more advertisements. Even after they've gone out of their way already to install an ad-blocker.
If I'm installing an ad-blocker I want it to block all ads.

in my case that was false.
I used a manga reading site that had ads on page change making literally impossible to use their site.
this is why most people use ads, they are annoying and intrusive.
