I posted about really being overrun by ads on Priuschat with my android phone and Mendel mentioned blockers. I just installed Firefox and Ublock (?) And it is a miracle!!-! Thank you!!!
PriusChat and other web services are supported by ad revenue. Ads can be irritating, ignore-able, or sometimes amusing (recently had a pop up in Finnish ). Users have options to block ads and thus that small slice of revenues. They should decide, and knowing enough about ad blockers facilitate decision. Their decision.
