    Do you think its ok to use adblock plus for web surfing? What will happen to free content if everyone has adblock plus?:(

    Why wouldn't it be? People have their right to block information they don't want to see.


    I'm not sure what free content has to do with AdBlock Plus.


    I don't really mind the ads, that's why I haven't implemented ABP. Plus some of the ads give me humor.

    Of course people have the right to block information they don't want to see, but ads are what keeps some websites alive. If you have everyone that visit your site implement ad block plus, how will you pay server fees? This will in turn cause "free content" online to be obsolete because some websites might start asking for people to pay to view their content.
