Because if you don't keep making excuses for them, you're left with the alternative: doing a bunch more work yourself, which many people don't find remotely enjoyable.
Which reminds me, I need to go and try installing Axolotl on my PinePhone again :)

If companies feel like they need intrusive ads I guess I they can do that, but they are dead to me and my life is better for it.
