So we have a separate subscription service at app.optimal.com where you can pay $5.99 a month and we will distribute 70% of that to publishers, entirely transparently. You can also "tip" sites an extra 5c or 25c if you like. There is no connection to our blocker or anyone else's... It's the honor system. We trust some people will do that and it will be enough to create new value for the broken ads ecosystem. We welcome your comments and ideas on this but fundamentally I believe that there should be an option in all media to avoid ads AND pay journalists (my brother is one), a fair rate. This can't be done by any one website on its own.
