OK, that's a really bad three-line headline that doesn't say anything. Here's the gist: Firefox has partnered with a company called Scroll to collect a monthly fee (currently $5US/month) to pay to publishers in lieu of web advertisements. The site says the pilot works in the U.S. only but I was able to get to the part where you pay here in Canada as well. but I didn't pay; I'm stopped by the idea of "Scroll's network of outstanding publishers", which certainly doesn't include me or anyone like me. Why should only some of the sites benefit from centrally collected revenue? Sorry, no. Democratize, or nothing.
