I think to address "why do you work on ads" and only addressing the positive points misses half of the question. The other half is what harms do ads cause. He addressed bandwidth concerns which they're working on mitigating with ad vendors, but biggest problem with ads is the number of wasted attention cycles by people who do not find ads relevant or otherwise be interested at all in buying anything displayed in ads. If you calculate life lost on the internet due to this factor alone that number may justify banning almost all types of ads immediately. Additionally, opening with I give half of my money to charity so leave me alone, should be a red flag that what's to follow is not a strong argument for the point the author is trying to make.
