It is your problem when more and more companies start implementing hard-to-get-around "Pay a subscription or unblock ads" walls.
If I don't want to see ads from, e.g. NY Times, but I want to read their content, I could either manage yet-another-subscription, or I could have a plugin that manages the payment for me.
The benefit of the latter is (in theory) a) I don't need to have yet-another-subscription, and b) I don't pay for what I don't read.
The downside is, again, that I don't pay for what I don't read, which in turn leads to click-bait and listicles. However, advertising has already led to that.
