> Content Creator to sign up to Google's Ad ecosystem I don't think there has been any indication of this one way or another, and I'd be sort of surprised if this is the tack they're taking. We'll see how it turns out, but it doesn't sound (to me) like they are compelling companies to show Google ads, merely providing the paywall technology. > You know god damn well this system won't work with uBlock or any other 3rd Party Ad Blocker. I think the entire point is to get people using uBlock etc to either turn it off or to pay, so I have no idea where you're getting this idea from.

> I think the entire point is to get people using uBlock etc to either turn it off or to pay, It is not an either or situation. Google wants to track you and get paid for doing so. They don't care if the money comes from you or advertisers. They do however care if they can't track you. A contribution system could be setup completely independent of the ad serving system. That however has not been the case. With all iterations of Contributor before this, if you had Ad Blocker enabled then Contributor did not work at all.

  > With all iterations of Contributor before this, if you had Ad Blocker enabled then Contributor did not work at all. "This time is different", or at least I think this time it will be different, since the whole point is to reach users who have ad blockers enabled, I guess we'll see how it goes.
