Google Web Light strips down pages when slow connections appear
There is nothing worse then trying to load anything on a slow connection. For years, many of us have benefited from 4G LTE, 3G, and WiFi connections. Tasks are completed much quicker when a solid connection is present. Frustratingly, the entire world does not have this luxury. Google plans to fix the problem for those with slow connections with the introduction of Web Light. This approach loads pages four times as fast and consumes 80% less data. It strips down everything to just text and images (which are in a lowered resolution). While some are noticing that advertisements vanish when using Web Light, I found the majority of sites to keep them alive.
