When I ride my ad-subventioned subway and I look away from the ads, am I free riding the sub?
When I see an ad, I make note of the product and tell at least two people at random how that product gave my uncle cancer or burned down his house killing his entire family. Imagine a movement where every single person took ads and used them to create anti ads. Make company’s think before they steal our time and data.

Whiche eventually stops the content from being free. Have you any idea how expensive video server hosting is ? YouTube hosts billions of hours of videos and makes them available to the public, and does all of that entirely for free.
If you think they would have even the shadow of a glimmer of hope of funding that entirely with unobtrusive banner ads, then frankly you’re deluded.
You can have ad free content or free content. You can’t have both, that’s not how shit works. And if you’re willing to pay for ad free content, that is already an option with Patreon, Nebula or YT Premium.
