Re: Google's "Sponsored Links" Aren't

["Bonnie Granat" <bgranat -at- granatedit -dot- com>]

That's so weird.... But how could anything I have on my system alter the
HTML page itself? I have Google controling ads and Norton set at
whatever its default is. I don't remember doing anything special.

But maybe that's how ad blockers work, by changing the HTML.

At any rate, I wanted some cotton socks, and I figured I'd check out a
sponsored link, but I had to cut and paste. <growl> I wonder what it is.
I wrote Google a note asking about it.
