      I used to feel bad when I’d get those banners on sites asking me to disable my adblocker.

      But now I don’t care and am in the habit to disable the message.

      • there have been 1 too many ads that have introduced malware/other malicious software into people’s devices. No thanks.
      • most ads are irrelevant to me anyway. No matter how many times I tell YouTube I’m not interested, I still get those motherfucking Old Spice and cringey fragrance and makeup ads. You’re damn right I’ll use an adblocker so I don’t have to see shit that doesn’t even interest me.
      • too many companies double dip by showing ads and expecting subscriptions and/or selling data. So fuck it, might as well visit your site without ads since you’ve got other ways of making money off visitors like me. And if you don’t, fuck it, I’ll find another site that won’t give me grief like yours does.
      • that banner pops up even when I’m not using an adblocker, so fuck it.
