Personally I have gotten access to some legitimately good products via ads. So, I don't believe advertising is destroying things - only irresponsible, immoral advertisements of bad products is. This latter form of advertising thrives only via junk content(like daily newspapers, reality television etc.). No good company will be willing to advertise its products via junk content and no creator of good content is going to let a bad product get advertised. So I feel, speaking against junk content is the way to go. That way we will have good content making money by advertising products that actually deserve it while also getting rid of bad companies and junk content.
If you are thinking of blocking ads then that will hit not only the pockets of junk content creators(which is fine) but also that of good content creators who will then eventually turn to the junk.
