Personally, I consider ad-blocking a form of theft,
priceless. You might have not noticed but people are supposed to own their computers. So the actual theft is done by the ad publishers who are criminally accessing hardware they do not own. That's especially blatant in the case of the tons of javashit tracking malware they run on the computers of their victims.
Sure, it's their computer, but they chose to visit a site which is not theirs, One that was created and maintained by somebody else. It costs to create and host sites, if there is no means for monetization then the likely macro repercussion is less sites or more pay-sites. Perhaps someday on some sites you may choose: 1. micro-crypto payments. 2. give me ads. 3. allow my browser to mini-mine crypto for the site owner. 4. by donation ie wikipedia.... There is no free lunch, the attitude that people should get something for nothing in my opinion is a cancer to society.
