I don't complain when I try to charge my Pixel with an iPhone cable (without a dongle) and it doesn't work. Do you not give a damn about their cable because it doesn't charge a normal, modern phone?
It's almost like companies have a right to push their own products by building things into that ecosystem. Does it also bother you that Apple doesn't develop iMessage for Android?
The web isn't a magical universal standard anymore. Every browser is different and supports different things. If you want to use something that's not supported by your browser but you're not willing to switch, that's not the developer's problem.
>Google again shoving that unwanted browser in my face.
It's almost like companies are allowed to advertise their products. I don't complain about Coca-Cola again shoving that unwanted drink in my face because their vending machines only sell Coke, and because their ads are everywhere.
At some point you're just arguing against Google, and not against the specific product in the post.
I still don't think there is a moral right or wrong with AdBlockers. Web sites are text--how you choose to render them is (or should be) up to you, in my opinion.
If you go to a restaurant and order a salad, you're not obligated to eat the olives, and you have the right to take them off your plate.
Likewise, you have the right to bring an intermediary who looks at your salad and hides all the olives for you.
If your intermediary happens to work for Green Olive Co. and he hides the black olives but not the green ones, you have the right to switch to another intermediary. Or get another intermediary who checks the plate and hides the rest of the olives. Or do whatever you want, because you're not obligated to consume any part of the salad that you don't want to.
