Feel free to use an Ad Blocker (I use PiHole). This site uses Google Adsense and it's used only for getting viewer statistics and like a few pitiful pennies a year in ad revenue. It costs me more to run this site, I literally make no money on this site. This banner is here to be compliant with GDPR because GoogleSite Kit keeps bugging me about it. I write blog posts, everyone is free to read them for zero dollars. I just like to see how many people have read them and nothing more.
