A news website is a business that readers can read news freely, as free cofe; at the same moment, they are sold to advertising companies?

@noorul Some readers complain about a website. They don't realize that they are products, not clients.

@noorul I think maybe Adblock is unfair to them. So I just block their websites or avoid visiting them. Then I won't load their servers.

@veer66 @noorul Good idea. There’s better things you can do with your time anyway, I find often I’m reading the news for entertainment rather than a need to be better informed.
