"The end game of the race has already been reached."

I still think there's a lot farther it could still go. The fact that ads can mostly be blocked by using domain filters suggests that the "bad guys" aren't really trying yet.

I prefer the internet of today to one where all content is DRM locked.

I would like to think that when that day is reached, I'm building my own web and I have an open invite anyone who wants to join...

I'll join you, but I still have hope for this one. So I'll keep avoiding ad blockers.
