>I do see it as a moral issue.
The moral issue is on the other side as well: Most malware comes from hacked ad servers and the ad industry doesn't really seem to care.
Until that changes, ads stay blocked and I won't even bother evaluating the other reasons (invasiveness, bandwidth/battery usage).
- tljr 11y agoI'd go deeper - a lot of social issues stem from advertising. Until that stops Adblock stays on.
- Karunamon 11y agoMalware is my #1 reason for blocking ads. Unless you as the website owner are willing to vet every single advertiser on your platform (or alternatively: commit to ads with zero active content), and compensate people if/when you let something through, the ads stay blocked. My hourly rate is many times more than the few hundredths of a cent you get for the impression.
