   He's only fixated on it because I happened to recommend it (among others   
   like AdGuard) for blocking ads in Safari, which it does for FREE without   
   any in-app purchases. : )   
      
   Arlen desperately wants to paint it as "crippleware" simply because it   
   has additional features (such as whole-device ad blocking) that can be   
   enabled with an in-app purchase. And as you say, countless apps on the   
   App Store have free functionality with optional in-app purchases for   
   additional functionality. And like all of those other apps, any adult   
   can plainly see that 1Blocker's basic ad blocking functionality is   
   indeed completely FREE. Same with AdGuard and numerous other iOS ad   
   blockers. Arlen desperately wants us to ignore these FACTS, because he   
   is driven by his FEELINGS of irrational hate.  He's a loser.
