    For giggles I looked at how many trackers Focus blocked on my school's online classroom site... Login page alone had 12. Before logging in.

    So they are Not selling it. They Just give it away for free :)

    Or does anyone ever received a single cent from facebook (for such stuff)? ^^

    I need an ad blocker that replaces all ads on a page with pictures of puppies and hamsters.

    And sends false tracking information saying I’m only interested in socks and towels.

    I interviewed with Conversant, a digital ad company you've probably never heard of before, and I asked how they deal with people using extensions to block ads, tracking, cookies, etc. Specific to the cookies, they've partnered with online retailers to become first-party cookies. So even if you block third-party cookies it's no use.

    @paralegalseagul I don't block cookies. I've got an add-on which removes all cookies of a site after I close the tab :)

    @tofonion I shouldn't whisper this stuff because it might be illegal, but Google has made losses through a ad blocker

    @tofonion adblock plus did something similar for April's fools a few years ago. They replaced every ad with pictures of cats.
    It's the best decision they've ever made, the Internet definitely needs more cats
