I'd consider it "convenience" rather than "ad-block effort"; but I already expect many web pages not to be "fully functional" with a browser which doesn't do exactly what they want, so I accept it.
I think this is a great feature of Dillo. I also use certain adblock plug-ins in Firefox (for years, actually). My thoughts on this are as follows: I pay for my ADSL connection and access to the Internet. I run my own website, mail server etc. which is sort of my hobby and free. Now, if a website needs to derive money to succeed to run, then the first page you hit should be this, and nothing more: THIS SITE HAS ADVERTS THAT FUND OUR CONTENT: [button]PROCEED? That way, people can decide if they want so see adverts or not, and just bugger off somewhere else if not. Dillo does it right, IMHO. Nick -- Gosh that takes me back... or is it forward?
