    Interestingly, there's a bunch of HNers who chide us and tell us we all have a moral responsibility to allow malware to be installed on our systems, because using an ad-blocker is "stealing".

    I've had phishing served to me through google ads a few times, so this hardly surprises.

    Never forget that Google is all but complicit in this.

    Why is Apple allowing Google to serve ads to Apple's customers?
