Oh, I could see past your errors, I was just pointing it out. Errors *do not* help credibility, almost ever. (There might be some times it does, but I’m not sure I would want to gain credibility with people that would take such as helping my credibility). If you disagree with this I don’t know what to tell you. I also didn’t actually attack your credibility (I don’t really think you have any, but that’s a different matter), but made an observation that you could make sure your writing is better to not detract from your credibility. With the amount of tools available to avoid spelling mistakes it doesn’t really matter whether English isn’t a language one is perfectly proficient in.\n
\n
I have clearly expressed what makes adblocking equate to piracy. It’s in the first paragraph of the first comment of mine you replied to. It should be fairly straight forward. Consuming without paying.\n
\n
I reject your premise that it’s like microtransactions in gaming, unless you specifically mean in “free” games. Of course microtransactions and a lot of DLC for paid games are enshittification, but that’s more like asking you to pay more to access a new episode of a show or a scene from a show you’ve already paid for. Not near the same as having ads to pay for the costs of delivering content (and I include producing the content in “delivering” it).\n
\n
Now, if you instead make the argument that the *amount* of ads or the *contents* of ads are enshittificating services that let you consume content without directly paying for it yourself I can agree. But not that ads themselves *are* enshittification. Nor that avoiding to pay to consume content isn’t piracy. I just think it’s self-deception to claim that not paying by blocking ads isn’t piracy. I have also made it clear that I think blocking ads is perfectly reasonable and *what should be done*. It may not be piracy in the **legal** sense, but circumventing systems meant to pay for something seems perfectly in line with the colloquial sense of the word.\n
\n
Somewhat of a tangentNow, do I think the internet would be better if there were no ads at all? Yes, of course. But do you think it would be better that people would have to directly pay to use services on the internet instead? That would mean poorer people would be barred from a lot of online services. Because it costs something to host services on the internet and that has to be paid somehow. And people generally congregate to a small subset of sites which thus get a lot of traffic and thus high costs that has to be paid somehow. Sure, you could have some sites being public forums made available by government and thus “free to use” because they payment is through taxes, but that’s generally not how businesses operate.

Oh, I could see past your errors, I was just pointing it out. Errors *do not* help credibility, almost ever. (There might be some times it does, but I’m not sure I would want to gain credibility with people that would take such as helping my credibility). If you disagree with this I don’t know what to tell you. I also didn’t actually attack your credibility (I don’t really think you have any, but that’s a different matter), but made an observation that you could make sure your writing is better to not detract from your credibility. With the amount of tools available to avoid spelling mistakes it doesn’t really matter whether English isn’t a language one is perfectly proficient in.\n
\n
I have clearly expressed what makes adblocking equate to piracy. It’s in the first paragraph of the first comment of mine you replied to. It should be fairly straight forward. Consuming without paying.\n
\n
I reject your premise that it’s like microtransactions in gaming, unless you specifically mean in “free” games. Of course microtransactions and a lot of DLC for paid games are enshittification, but that’s more like asking you to pay more to access a new episode of a show or a scene from a show you’ve already paid for. Not near the same as having ads to pay for the costs of delivering content (and I include producing the content in “delivering” it).\n
\n
Now, if you instead make the argument that the *amount* of ads or the *contents* of ads are enshittificating services that let you consume content without directly paying for it yourself I can agree. But not that ads themselves *are* enshittification. Nor that avoiding to pay to consume content isn’t piracy. I just think it’s self-deception to claim that not paying by blocking ads isn’t piracy. I have also made it clear that I think blocking ads is perfectly reasonable and *what should be done*. It may not be piracy in the **legal** sense, but circumventing systems meant to pay for something seems perfectly in line with the colloquial sense of the word.\n
\n
Somewhat of a tangentNow, do I think the internet would be better if there were no ads at all? Yes, of course. But do you think it would be better that people would have to directly pay to use services on the internet instead? That would mean poorer people would be barred from a lot of online services. Because it costs something to host services on the internet and that has to be paid somehow. And people generally congregate to a small subset of sites which thus get a lot of traffic and thus high costs that has to be paid somehow. Sure, you could have some sites being public forums made available by government and thus “free to use” because they payment is through taxes, but that’s generally not how businesses operate.
