A web browser is a web client. Its purpose is to enable the download and display of web content. Unselectively (is that a word?), unbiased, and unprejudiced.
It should also not in any way change the content as-delivered, making pages not displayed as-intended by their publishers (in a way that could even be seen as a breach of copyright or a form of censorship).
It should also not inherently and automatically undermine the internet economy -- often hitting small publishers harder than corporations.
And it should always be the end user's choice to determine what they want to block and how they want to block it.
