            I would really miss it if it went away, that would be horrible.

              @scottalanmiller FIL couldn't understand how blocking ads made us more secure and sped up the Internet. He also didn't understand Google ads in-line with the results.

                Google ads inline with results was a tough one for my users to grasp. A couple of them still think "the internet is broken" when they click those ads.

                                    So is that what these guys do, sit around and parse wireshark logs looking at bytes of memory, and then figuring out whats what, then using these tools like hashcat to crack keys and pw?

                                            The very last line sums up what you lot have been banging on about for a while:
                                            Android tablets are dying. This should have been a Chrome OS tablet.
