Windows 10: Google Readying to Actively Protect Advertising Revenue Priorities

Howdy, Members:

Over the years I have intermittently switched browsers between Chrome, Firefox, Palemoon, Cyberfox, and Opera. I am currently using Chrome for about the last 5-years... but that's about to change again.

I just found (2) disturbing articles which spell unfortunate news for Chromium users who utilize ad blocking as I do:

• Chromium to Weaken Ad-Blockers – Impacts Chrome, Edge and Brave Browsers
• Google rejects Brave (BAT) ad campaign as “Malicious or unwanted software”. : CryptoCurrency

I hope this proves helpful and especially invite Power-User comments.

ESD (Static) Protection

The final steps of building my PC are coming up. I have ordered the parts and am ready to build. Now I am worried about static protection. What is it I need to do? I understand about static wrist wraps, but what about the mats? Are they worth the cash.
