Maybe I'm being dense but I don't see the chicken/egg issue.
- quickthrower2 9y agoMaybe I misunderstood the model. But i would guess you'd need lots of relevant sites offering to sell access to their content to make it worth a reader signing up. But for the sites to use your system they'd want to know there are lots of readers signed up so they'll make a reasonable amount of money.
- saimiam 9y agoOh, i see what you mean. In some distant future when a lot of people are using Datajoy(DJ) to block ads, content creators will (hopefully) want to let in DJ users despite them blocking ads. The usual solution to a chicken/egg problem is to aggressively solve for one side of the equation and hope the other side is forced to engage. In the case of adblocking, the users of adblockers are actively seeking tools to block ads which means the content creators will be motivated to engage with adblock providers. Does this make sense?
- quickthrower2 9y agoYes I see. That makes sense. Thanks
