[Rainer]

Since the discussion started in a different thread (with the use of ad-blockers as a main topic)

I would like to comment on that first.

 

After I had to clean an accurately patched windows 7 twice from viruses

within one year, i do not surf without ad-blocker anymore. A website that 

finances itself from ads shall do so by including the ads into its own

URL-space (with that no ad-blocker would block them ... and with that

it is unlikely a site becomes distributor of viruses). If you are just including

a reference to some ad-junkyard, you have no control at all what you are

delivering to your reader. Using an ad-blocker to read such a site is pure

selfdefence.

So, if PZ hides its content so that ad-blockers will not see it, then 

I will resign from PZ.

 

I might contribute a monthly or annual amount to a site if I feel it

has some kind of value to me, but I would question myself to check

this value occasionally ... so eventually I would resign after the first

period of paid membership (rather than just shutting up for a while).

 

Just my 2cts ... Rainer
