Actually, no.

I'm most probably the last person in whatever group I may find myself into to want and cause ruckus. If we evolved the capability to communicate and express our ideas and points of view, resorting to force, in whatever form it may take, is the last thing we should do.

What you are probably going to find with this crop of "safer, more secure..." browsers (there are currently several out there testing the waters) is basically a lack of functionality in terms of plugin and extension support. Which is fine of course if you don't need that stuff, but that's kind of antithetical to many people's purpose in web browsing to start with, so...
Nobody would ever ask questions If everyone possessed encyclopedic knowledge of the man pages.

There is a Raspberry Pi based solution for those who want to filter adds at their homes or offices. This replaces add content with a small transparent gif. The reason for replacing add content instead of just blocking it is to avoid having internet browsers waiting for blocked resources. This results in faster browsing.

Here is the link: https://pi-hole.net
