Hacker News Reader

Value of random website that I click on: $0.01

Potential losses from drive-by-download or other malicious content served by an ad-network: -$30000.00

Not if I have to allow untested 3rd party Javascript / malware onto my system. No thank you.

Not through ads displayed in my browser. There are other ways to get paid, though.

So content displayed through browser should be behind a paywall then? What if the solution is ads blocked for a fee?
