my 2c: I know I'll get a lot of flack for this...but this is definitely not an end all, be all solution for services that depend on ads. That said, this tool does have a place - to be the platform that provides content producers/publishers a way to fairly charge a subset of consumers to experience the product adfree. * publishers/producers decide how much to charge / minute of use * this neutral tool shows that transparently to the user and the user can decide if he/she would prefer an paid ad-free experience or not. - maybe over time, this price fluctuates based on how users across network use the content etc. (to ensure quality does not fall etc.) As for publishers/creators that charge exorbitant rates / minute - the market will take care of them - users would just adblock and they'd just loose $ (basically their loss - either they have a fair compensation or not at all). BUT this tool is NOT the only way for producers to make money. Ads does have a place but this tool just helps those who want to pay and help producers and avoid ads at the same time.
