@wirehead2501 @chaosprime ten maybe don’t invent a viewpoint for me?
@XaiaX @wirehead2501 What is the harm that a site has incurred when I view it adblocked vs. when I don't view it at all?

@chaosprime@wirehead2501 X views *$y ad revenue, where X is “actual views minus ad blocked views”. That revenue pays writers & staff. -
@XaiaX@wirehead2501 Yeah, that's not a responsive answer. They don't get the ad revenue when I don't visit the site, either. -
@chaosprime@wirehead2501 and you don’t exploit their labor that way, either. Your actions are harmful and your reasons don’t matter. -
@XaiaX@wirehead2501 You still haven't identified any way in which the actual action I have described harms anyone's lived experience. -
@chaosprime@wirehead2501 Dress it up all you want. They’re all just post hoc rationalizations. The ad model is shit, but it’s what’s there.
