Exactly this. Why do so many people feel entitled to free stuff at the operator's expense? It boggles the mind.

- chriswarbo 3y agoI'm sure there are some people out there who feel such entitlement. I haven't seen anyone claiming such entitlement here though. Personally, I agree with the 'my device, my rules' comment. If YouTube want to (try to) block me, they can go ahead. They're under no obligation to serve me video content even if I didn't block ads, so it makes little difference.
- floomk 3y agoWhy do so many people feel entitled to tell me how to use my computer? If they choose not to serve their webpages to me, that's fine. To be realistic, I probably won't even notice their attempt because my adblocker will already have updated to bypass their silly attempt. But yes, it is their right to try. Just as it is my right to install & use an adblocker.
- arrosenberg 3y agoYouTube is a vertically integrated monopolist in the video space. There is no where else I can go to consume the majority of content they host. Why would any regular person empathize with the criminals in the commission of their crimes?
