Because I pay for shit I use so it’s not really that bad. Shocking I know. God forbid you pay someone for the service.
Because in the grand scheme of everything ads have so little effect on life and my experience that whining about it is a complete and utter waste of time.
I just don’t care, it’s not having a huge effect. I know I know, it is only the ads and ecosystem that makes me want a new GPU from my 2 realistic choices. And I might know of the existence of some other stupid product.
I have better things to be annoyed and concerned about.
I don’t see how paying for a service implies or justifies solicitation. Ads, especially online, persistently obstruct information and strive to be a general sensory nuisance. I don’t even watch cable TV because the ads have become so noisy, brainless, and aggressive (also since so much of the network content has as well).
They’re not wrong but I still block them. One it has gotten out of hand ads are obnoxious and everywhere. Two they have infected people computers before so are not safe.

That’s objectively untrue, though. It’s just so effective, you don’t notice it anymore, and that’s kind of scary.
👌👍 they have a huge effect on my life. You clearly know better than I.
Advertising works, and changes your habits and opinions, whether you acknowledge this or not.

I think they might mean that consuming ads is a form of payment?

You don’t understand how commerce works? Everything is just run for free I guess. Nobody is getting paid for anything at all.
Are you trolling?
Understanding how ads work is trolling now?
We…… twice…… established that a consumer is already fiscally paying for these services which then add ads onto the service
