I posted this question because I once saw a tweet that said something like:

“If you use adblock, you don’t care about creator’s point blank”

What is your opinion on this? Do you agree with them?

    That’s an overly simplistic take.

    Over the years, ads have become louder, bigger, more intrusive, more voluminous, and alarmingly much more “personal”

    I value my peace and my privacy.

    I support creators with donations, subscriptions and purchases. If it’s an exclusively ad-supported service that does so respectfully and reasonably, I might whitelist it.

    Everything else gets blocked. I use AdGuard and their extensions, and a VPN set to a Swiss geo helps with the rest.
