You'd think wouldn't you? But no. I have Adblocker, Adblocker Plus, AdRemover
and Ublock Origin. Yet, the ads still appear.

It is somehow satisfying to be able to remove these ads from my screen, even
though I know that they're still lurking in the original HTML. Such is the way
my mind works.

I used to occasionally use a Firefox extension called "Print Without 
Ads" but Mozilla recently changed their add-on system system and, like 
many other extensions, it no longer works.

Wouldn't one of the ad-blocker extensions remove these ads in Chrome
without you having to poke about?

Hello Fellow Bats

Is the u/g to v 8 (from v7.4.16) an important or recommended u/g?
Will all my settings carry forward or, if not, what will I lose?

Best regards,
Rich Gregory
