Millions of people installed adblock. When YouTube increased the number of ads, lots of people complained about it. People often complain about TV ads and switch to Netflix.
There's no social contract - a company shows ads and gets money, so they do it.
Do you really think customers are happy when an ad interrupts their favorite TV show? The answer is no fucking way. You've worked in the business for 17 years so it may cost you to believe it, but it's obvious to everyone else.
