Imagine it's not blurring, but random replacement of alphanumeric characters that quickly replaces the original text in the article. Would you use it that way and which route: micro-payments or ads?

Still just as annoying. (And no.)

It does both; it not only replaces the characters with "random" ones (it may be rot13?) but it also blurs the text with a CSS effect of some type.
