Agreed! Also, while i think i used it once and then never again (for no real reason), i remember there used to be some scripts, or rather a suite of scripts named, like, Greasemonkey or GreaseScripts or something...that allowed you to block certain actions from happenineg on websites, as well as customize many other elements of your experience on websites...conceptually like web extensions can provide ad blocking nowadays...anyway, as i recall, some of these scripts/functions allowed for semi-blocking blink and other features that users might have found annoying...like i noted, i used it once since blink and other banner add-like things didn't bother me too much...but this and your comments here reminded me of that suite of scripts - and how much power they granted users within their browser and browsing experience.
