Description of problem:
LK: blocker blocker on desktop. No longer a "whitelist" option. It’s just a paywall that appears after viewing three articles. Not sure we can/should block this. Need to discuss.
Previously:
Not so much a problem--their content requires either a subscription or a whitelisting. Is there a way to whitelist them for first party ads, but still block third party ads, trackers, etc? Therefore supporting them, but maintaining my safety, and also holding them directly responsible for the ad content they serve?
