What I've been doing instead is sending updates to the hosts file maintainer.
I think there's a clear difference between intrusive adverts and tracking that we don't consent to receiving. And the items that we explicitly visit and realise we're going to be tracked on.
i.e. If we're clicking through to a web site that is a shop, I fully expect the shop to place a cookie and track me (in fact, most shops don't work without it). But if I haven't explicitly clicked through to something... then I'll be damned if they should place a cookie.
So yeah, I attack it at source... even without the revenue for Microcosm, I want some things to carry on working, fairly sure others do too.

hippy
I realise that, I just wanted to make you aware of it. You might want to mention it if you suggest that hosts file to peeps maybe?
