Ban Googles "adsense" advertisments from the Internet.

Adsense ads. What a gimmick.
We have enough bandwidth being wasted by untold amounts of "spam", also known as unwanted advertisements, on the internet and now google has come up with this new idea (a few years ago), and then 'improves" on it.

Now its almost impossible to block these ads.

People pay big bucks just to have internet access. Those folks in major cities that have cable internet monopolies, pay extraordinary rates just to have internet. Then on top of that they are forced to have their limited bandwidth being wasted by unwanted advertisements and junk.

People who support these ads, say the ads are necessary to pay for the webpages that internet users go to. Bull crud.. Adsense was set up so that individuals could make MONEY from people seeing their advertisements. And Google would benefit from that.

With No way to opt out of all adsense advertisements, google is effectively stealing the bandwidth of people who pay for internet access.

At a time when big cable companies such as Comcast, Time Warner, Charter are now "throttling" down their speeds and feeds to people who spend a lot of time on the internet, the theft of this bandwidth is inexcusable.

By Throttling, I mean the ISP (Internet service provider, such as Comcast) decreases the amount and speed of data allowed to go to a particular customer, because they are being seen as bandwidth hogs, using more than the average user.

While its true that some people do use more, the fact that up to 30 percent of what they use can be unwanted advertisements should be cause to either have the throttling stopped, or to force google to provide for a way for a person to opt out completely, that is to make it so that a person does not get ANY of the adsense advertisements. It should also be a reason to cause the ISP's to not count the megabytes of unwanted adverts from being used against a user,  for their total bandwidth usage in determining if the person is to have their feeds throttled by their ISP.

Recent articles show that over 50 percent of traffic on the internet is unwanted spam.. Porn, or advertisements, or other junk that most users would rather not even see.

Yet we the internet users are forced to pay for it.  Enough is enough. Ban Adsense from the internet.
It is a nuisance
