Ima be honest. I don’t run ad blockers. The way I see it, if I’m consuming content from a given source and that source invested time and/or money into said content then they deserve to be compensated for it. I am not willing to pay a subscription for every website out there, so ads are an acceptable compromise.
You remind me of the old guy at work who called me a "FUCKING FREELOADER" because I told him about uBlock origin.
I'm never recommending it again to anyone and I have since kept it a secret that I use an ad-blocker. I guess it's a problem for people.
That guy sounds like he thinks his kids owe him money for raising them. Disregard the stupid bastard.
Don't let this one person stop you.
I'm still recommended it to everybody.
