You’re also stealing from the content creators who rev share with Google. No one seems to mention that a majority of the ad revenue Google gives to content creators. If you makes you feel better, you can keep thinking it’s Google.
- TillE 3y agoI'm really happy to support the tiny YouTubers I like on ko-fi or Patreon. It's way more than the pennies per year they might make from my ad views.
- CaptainFever 3y agoI feel like after the adpocolypse, creators have learnt to stop relying on ads and rely on Patreon instead. It's pretty great, actually.
- matheusmoreira 3y agoNo one is stealing a damn thing. We're not obligated to watch ads. Our attention is not currency to pay for services with. If anyone's stealing anything, it's them. As far as I'm concerned uBlock Origin is legitimate self-defense against their ceaseless attempts to grab my attention without my consent. They send people videos for free. They do so hoping you'll watch the ads. At exactly no point does this ever turn into an obligation to "pay" by watching the ads. They only have themselves to blame if their business model isn't working out.
