Some of professional videos contain some valuable bits that I am after. And I simply don't let anyone else decide for me what I should and shouldn't watch. > you are just "stealing" content and trying to excuse yourself for it by wishing it was something it isn't. > The videos aren't put out for free I don't even try to excuse myself if you call it 'stealing', instead I'll just agree, since from your point of view - me watching your videos with adblockers enabled basically makes me a thief of your potential profits (which isn't a direct loss, but a somewhat comparable thing). Thing is (which many people that upvoted my previous post would probably disagree with) - I am not nice at all: I don't care about your profits. I don't owe you anything. You want money for your videos? You are free to sell them! Don't upload them into public! Oh, but you did? Well, I might watch them for free now with all my adblockers (if, I wish so), because that's now for me to decide. I might rewind your videos if I get bored or annoyed by some parts. And I don't care what you think about it. I just wanted to explain my position that your choices affect you and my choices affect me: you can't command me and I can't command you. You chose to become a professional youtuber - go you! I chose to be a pirate - yarrr! I might watch your content for free! p.s.: another thought that entertains me: as you might have not noticed - you didn't pay me for reading my comment. Does this make you a hypocrite?
