    Give it a few years in Chromebooks are going to be ecosystems that are filled with advertisements.

    So many teachers use ad block and YouTube to teach students things in classes.

    YouTube does a really bad job regulating what ads get served to what users.

    I think we’ve got a few hilarious PR nightmares looming.

          same

          they are allowlist (not blacklist) and block nearly every extension

          except fire extensions like:

          1.) cisco umbrella

          2.) epub reader

          3.) stop motion thingy

          etc etc
