They can try. Maybe it gets more people to learn about pinhole or other adblocking, with a little bit of luck it even rescues one or two people from the claws of windows.

Challenge rejected.

If you want challenge, just simply try to find a search engine that filters out shitty websites (e.g. Cloudflare sites, CAPTCHA-pushing sites, giant cookie popups, countless dark patterns).

We are already failing to meet the challenge. We don’t need more challenges.
