Can one thing please not be full of adverts :( I'll pay for the browser, I just want marketers to fuck off for a while lol

Did I miss something? I don't think the browser is going to be full of ads?

Not that they've announced yet, I just meant more broadly I am very sick of advertising and adverts

Mozilla actually has (had?) ads in Firefox, right on its default start page.

Right and that has existed long before today. And I can't find anything in this article suggesting that the start page, or anywhere else, is going to be reallocated towards new ads which is what it sounds like the commenter above me was suggesting.
