@dangoodin I understand the feeling. The problem is that people are blocking ads for safety and privacy reasons, not just because they are stingy. The only alternative then is paying a subscription, which does not scale very well. I do that for several publishers, including yours, but I don't want to manage more than maybe 10. I wish there was some kind of syndication. Or maybe ads that don't carry scripts and trackers.

@huitema @dangoodin I'm pretty sure the vast majority use adblockers to block ads and that privacy and safety is not a concern. I feel this reason is very niche in the adblock userbase

@res260 @huitema @dangoodin Privacy and safety are the entire reason I use blockers. Block trackers with something like PrivacyBadger and you'll see that it isn't about serving ads, but collecting your personal information and tracking you across all of your devices. I'd have a tiny bit of respect for them if they would just own up and say something like "If you want to access our site, you need to let us collect your personal information and sell your data."
