Indeed. I mean, I'm blocking ads as much the next guy and that's not going to change in any foreseeable future, but I cannot see how introduction of privacy preserving advertising platform could possibly be seen as anything other than an improvement over the current, completely perverse, situation. It would be better for people who don't block ads, so if this acquisition would advance uses of privacy-respecting advertising systems and simultaneously get some revenue to Mozilla then this sounds quite like a win-win to me.
