And it's un-ethical. I have a non profit site and have no adds for a good reason, I don't need some frikkin spamming company to add them for me because people happen to use their hyped free browser. If they want to show adds it's all fine by me but let them use their own browser to display them, not my site.

A browser that adds any content to a page, or alteres it is non ethical.
