Abstract
Under the present invention, supplemental web content (e.g., an advertisement) referenced in a requested markup language document is detected and reduced in quality (i.e., obscured). In reducing the supplemental web content in quality, the present invention can employ any number of techniques such as removing color, animation or sound, reducing contrast or resolution, blurring the content, etc. In any event, the requested markup language document is rendered with the reduced quality supplemental web content. The supplemental web content can then be restored to its original quality, if the user so desires, based upon a prompt.
