Irony alert: Adblock will show its 50 million users ads protesting online censorship

March 11, 2016 by Paul Spoerry 1 Comment



Adblock will show 50m users ads protesting censorship
This is a little ironic: Adblock will show ads in support of Amnesty International, for just one day.

This is a totally worthwhile cause; just funny that it's happening via an ad BLOCKING software.

On March 12, Adblock users will see messages from Edward Snowden, Pussy Riot and Ai Weiwei protesting cyber censorship. Each advertisement will appear in the form of banner ads and send viewers to longer content from each person.

The campaign, which is part of World Day against Cyber Censorship, is trying to highlight that governments are increasingly seeking to control online communications through mass surveillance.

About Paul Spoerry

I’m a groovy cat who’s into technology, Eastern Thought, and house music. I’m a proud and dedicated father to the coolest little guy on the planet (seriously, I'm NOT biased). I’m fascinated by ninjas, the Internet, and anybody who can balance objects on their nose for long periods of time.

I have a utility belt full of programming languages and a database of all my knowledge on databases... I practice code fu. Oh, I've also done actual Kung Fu, and have a black belt in Tae Kwon Do.

I run. I meditate. I dance. I blog at PaulSpoerry.com, tweet @PaulSpoerry, and I'm here on Google+.

I'm currently work for IBM developing web enabled insurance applications for IBM and support and develop a non-profit called The LittleBigFund.
