        Well, Opera Presto didn't exactly have an ad-blocker but a tool to block elements in a page. I think current ad-blocker is far more simple and easy to use.

          You are right,
          BTW, FanBoy made a great job with the "block content" file, like Easy List now with Opera Blink.

          I prefer the old Content blocker so you can have a clean page, blocking more ads and elements, just seeing the elements needed.

          At the other hand,

          I think current ad-blocker is far more simple and easy to use.

          Yes, easy but limited, at least for now. :rolleyes:
