Isn't evolution amazing? Bad things polish their natures and become worse. On the other hand, what does the list of hookers look like? They have one, right? And is this yet another 'project' from dan geer and his buddies? It sure looks like the kind of thing those pieces of shit would 'fund' and promote.

I think bigger problem than the sites is that many more things are screwed. One can block sites, but browsers suck probably worse. On debian 8, "iceweasel about:blank" in a fresh profile sets you a google cookie. In addition it checks for updates (almost sure from mozilla.) -- run it from terminal, wait at most few hours and watch stdout/stderr. Chromium was found to run native code downloaded from google. For search engines and the like you are the product (as someone already said).
