Have no fear, for the ads ARE already here.
* Want to watch YouTube ad-free on an iPhone? We've blocked every possible way unless you want to pay us - and we're still gonna spy on you.
* Not a fan of ads while watching TV? Well, tough luck. They're injected by the TV manufacturer.
* Want to pay for your content? Feel free to subscribe to Hulu, just don't expect ads to go away.
* Tired of seeing ads in Twitch? Well, Amazon sent legal takedowns to every successful ad blocker for Twitch - hope you're keen to write your own.
Sure sure sure: the techies here can workaround some of these. But your above-average person cannot, this has been normalized and is now _expected_.
