AdBlock avoids that problem by denying an ad virus that opportunity in the first place.
That's what my script would do, except it would still generate revenue for the website. Unless you're saying that's impossible, which... I don't see how it would be, but I'm not a programmer.
>.> at least as far as I understand, it might not work. But who knows? Making it work would be a humongous innovation that'd probably make the inventor a millionaire.

Everyone once thought airplanes were impossible, and look at us now. :^)

I suppose the hundreds of thousands of people dying to cross the Mediterranean to escape Syria isn't enough?

You stupid fucking hick.
Police brutality against people breaking the law and resisting an officer is a bigger issue. DUH.

Then someone should come up with an advirusblocker. An adblocker that prevents malicious content from going through by blocking the ad, but still generates revenue for the website.
The problem with that is there are plenty of ways to obfuscate malicious code. A virus can be transmitted through so much as a .jpg file (and here's an example of one).
Nothing my idea wouldn't be able to stop.

But no, as it stands, there is NO justification for not providing content providers with ad revenue, if they indeed use ads.
The only solution I can imagine would be plaintext advertisements with hyperlinks. It could work, but it'd be garbage for its purpose of grabbing attention and clicks, and ad-tracking, no offense.

The other problem with a virus blocker is that it works like a dictionary, in that it's limited by its number of entries. It doesn't do anything to stop zero-day vulnerabilities until it's updated with a new definition. AdBlock avoids that problem by denying an ad virus that opportunity in the first place.

The alternative to non-intrusive ads is not paid subscription.
Most people consider ALL ads to be "intrusive".

I don't consider any ads to be intrusive.

Thirty seconds is NOTHING.
They're pretty intrusive when they give you a computer virus.

Walker to suspend 2016 campaign

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, once a leading candidate in the Republican presidential race, will announce Monday that he is suspending his campaign, Fox News confirms.

The decision marks a swift reversal in fortunes for Walker, who over the summer was seen as the candidate to beat in the key state of Iowa. But the governor who forged a national reputation on his record battling union power in his home state saw his position slide in recent months.

Walker was plagued by a series of missteps, and was seen as performing poorly in the first two primary debates, generally struggling to stand out amid a crowded and boisterous 2016 field.

The 47-year-old had told Fox News before last Wednesday's debate at the Reagan Library that he planned to "be aggressive" and show the kind of "passion" that brought him to victory in the past. Walker did have a few notable moments -- including telling front-runner Donald Trump "we don't need an apprentice in the White House ... we have one right now.” But he was arguably outshined not only by Trump but Carly Fiorina and others.

For Walker, much was riding on his performance in that debate. In the aftermath, a CNN/ORC poll released Sunday showed Walker polling nationally at less than 1 percent.

Throughout his campaign, Walker cast himself as an "aggressively normal" conservative, campaigning as a fighter who had a number of victories in a state that hasn't voted for a Republican president since 1984.

Walker was elected governor in 2010, before winning a tough recall election in 2012 against a labor-backed effort to remove him from office, becoming the first governor to survive a recall election. Walker was elected to a second term in 2014.

However, when campaigning for president, he appeared to struggle in stating his policy positions. He appeared to flip-flop on whether he supported ending birthright citizenship in August, and showed interest in building a wall between the U.S. and Canada, only to later laugh it off as ridiculous.

Immediately after the decision to suspend the campaign was reported, fellow 2016 candidate Ben Carson praised Walker as "an outstanding leader with a strong record of fighting for conservative principles."

"I wish him the very best," Carson said.

While Walker may be leaving the race, his well-known feud with major labor unions showed no sign of fading away. AFL-CIO boss Richard Trumka released a scathing and brief statement: "Scott Walker is still a disgrace, just no longer national."

The move may have come to a surprise to supporters following Walker on Twitter, as he tweeted Monday he was "here to fight and win in Iowa."


   Thanks @DanZumbach for the kind words. We're here to fight and win in Iowa! #IAcaucus - SW https://t.co/AgZF9QOtCr

A Walker donor told Fox News that even large donors were kept in the dark about the decision. A Monday afternoon conference call with donors gave no hint that this was coming, the donor said.

The announcement will make Walker the second GOP candidate to suspend his campaign, following former Texas Gov. Rick Perry. Walker's exit will leave 15 major candidates remaining in the race for the Republican nomination.

The decision is expected to be announced at a press conference at 6 p.m. ET. 

Fox News' Ed Henry and William Turner and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

So I FINALLY got to play some MGS5 for a change. (What does Heroism do, exactly?)

I'm only on Mission 7 so far, but I've been taking like 90 minutes on average to complete a mission. My Heroism is around 8000 or something (the post-mission thing looked close to being full...?), probably from extracting like, every animal I see (tranqs even work on crows and rats, plus I developed the trap thing.)

There's a kind of bliss I get every time I play, and this session was the best one so far. I completed most of the side objectives, save for one, and got a bunch of diamonds too, just from interrogating pretty much everyone I could.

It had me wondering, though: Why am I seeing so many soldiers with good stats during missions? Free-roam usually gives me the usual gamut of low-stat soldiers, but on missions I see much, much better soldiers. Just in this mission, I saw three soldiers with A-rank or higher skills all in the rendezvous village.

I couldn't believe my eyes! Literally saw the three of them just a few feet away from each other. I'm still fultoning regular soldiers to fill up the new *ahem* platform, but otherwise I'm just firing the staff members who don't have at least a C in their highest skill.

In total, I have about 4-5 A-rank-or-higher staff members (NOT including folks like Ocelot) for when I finally get to build a combat platform. That'll be fun >.>
