Yeah. I’d be more than happy to allow banner ads and things like that if they won’t so invasive, annoying, and dangerous. Like, I understand they need ads to pay their bills, but I’m not going to risk the computer I bought and paid for for that sake :D
@Badumsquish
uBlock is so useful, having the ability to choose what scripts on the site run is indeed very nice because the vast majority of viruses and such are far less reasonable and far less adorable than elkie Malwarebytes has saved me a few times as well.
@Prince Artemis
I use a bunch of little things too. The VPN has a featured called “PIA Mace” that blocks domains for ads and malware, I use McAfee antivirus and Malwarebytes, and I have Ghostery and uBlock Origin as plugins in my browser. uBlock has the really great element block option, where you can right-click on anything on a site and just remove it. It’s really useful :D
@Prince Artemis
I don’t trust any sites to not do sketchy stuff, but only because I’m not good with computers so I don’t actually know what anyone is or isn’t capable of online. Like, I don’t use the internet, period, without a VPN, and even then I basically have to hope the VPN I use (Private Internet Access) isn’t doing sketchy stuff XD
@Prince Artemis
I mean, I understand why they axed Flash, but damned if I don’t miss it. It was just such a cornerstone of internet culture for so long, like so many things and creators got their start with flash-based games and animations :D

If it’s true… What if Equestria have the same video game console like the one we had on earth in the example like this: SNES, SEGA Genesis, Commodore 64 and Playstation?
I’d like to think she’d be incredibly defensive of a Browser-Pony, when it comes to the prospect of it going on sites without knowing of other viruses that could potentially invade… Like, some are its friends, and some are, well…
@Blissey1
Wait.
If this is GMHAA’s computer…
That means Derpibooru exists in Equestria.
Which means we exist in the same world as Equestria.
Which means Equestria exists in the same world as us.
Which means…
EQUESTRIA CONFIRMED TO EXIST IN THE REAL WORLD :D

Or disable your mouse. Or reverse it. Or swap the controls so moving the mouse left hits the p key and pressing * is a mouse click, or make your browser start “not responding” to make them unclickable…
Maybe. She would be in a decent position to run interference against other, less pone-based virus’, but at the same time as a virus her idea of ‘good computer maintenance’ could be wildly different than yours. Since the first image seemed to indicate that she acts similar to a ‘standard’ virus and decided to shape up when presented with the possibility of ‘death by anti-virus’, even a ‘friendly’ virus-pone has good odds of causing some havoc, the best you could hope for is that it’s relatively harmless havoc.
And may the FSM help you if she ever decides to invite over some friends…
Mmmhmm, not bricking my computer comes first.

I just run 3 different ad/script blockers. Can occasionally break sites yeah but its worth it to not get virus auto-ed.

So true. But hey at least I don’t have to worry about ads doing super sketchy stuff anymore.
I mean, I understand why they axed Flash, but damned if I don’t miss it. It was just such a cornerstone of internet culture for so long, like so many things and creators got their start with flash-based games and animations :D
Its…beautiful…
Thank goodness for Youtube :D
WHOOP LET THE CANCER RESUME!
Fixed :D
…
I still like this more, but that’s my opinion.
If it’s true… What if Equestria have the same video game console like the one we had on earth in the example like this: SNES, SEGA Genesis, Commodore 64 and Playstation?
I like the way you think!
… They are its R-Series to her Robo.
Oh, my God, I just noticed that.
Yea, that’s…well, it seems complicated.
Wait.

It’s one of my all-time favorites XD

It’s one of many ridiculous things that have been sent to me :P
