Ad-supported tech company employee#1: Users are blocking ads.
Ad-supported company employees: Uh-oh.
Ad-supported tech company employee#2: We can use this as an opportunity to block our competitors ads!
Ad-supported tech company employee#3: We might win some goodwill with users, too!
Example tech companies:
Apple
Brave
Google
etc.
Naive user: Oh well, I guess we just have to accept whatever the tech companies give us.
Real answer: No, users are actually the ones in control. That is why ad blocking is causing these companies to take action.
