What if there was a way to offer ads while not being extremely privacy invasive? Oh, good thing Mozilla's been working on that! Oh wait, the same people here hate that as well…

Shouldn't news agencies be paid in some way?

News agencies have always been able to offer adverts. But with the option to deny optional tracking cookies. Now you have to accept tracking cookies or pay money.
