You are assuming the adblockers will enter said arms race, which they don't really have to.
What is the provider to do when I refuse to render his add? Block me from content? My guess is, given the necessity of disabling the ad blocking to view content, many users will simply bounce from that content.
Content is cheap compared to the scarce attention we pay to each subject when we have so much information so easily accessible.
- javery 11y agoIf it's something you are really looking for I am not sure you would bounce so quickly. What if it's the answer to a bug you are trying to solve? Or a video on how to fix a problem with your car? Plenty of content is valuable and rare enough that people would disable their ad blocker for it - the frivolous stuff not so much though.
