Ads are invasive, intrusive, and hardly actually worth the value they sell themselves for… but I guess I’m entitled for thinking so.
Then pay.
That sounds like mafia logic. Paying won’t make ads any less intrusive or invasive. Only a little less so, only for me, only on one specific website, and only until advertising gets reintroduced to that service’s paid tiers. Modern advertising is its own reason why ad-blockers are so popular. It isn’t entitlement, it’s a response to entitlement.
