alt Hacker Newscommenters here WITH ad blockers installed sometimes STILL see ads
very rarely.

i am surprised that you noticed the one but not figured out the other. because that is also discussed at length.
advertising enables surveillance, ads cost resources, and they distract from the content.
>very rarely
Really? there's a commenter in this very thread who's having that experience. And I have seen this ad blocker FAIL issue raised here from time to time. More than "very rarely" judging from my own eyes....
