@patrickc So "Ad blocking means the people whose content you read make less money than if you don't use an ad blocker". -
@michael_nielsen So, yes, but I think that falls short of moral imperative. Deciding to not subscribe also costs publisher money. - 8 more replies

@patrickc I really don't like the "takes money away from" argument. It's emotive, but not actually true. & when replaced by s'thing true -
@michael_nielsen@patrickc May come down to some lurking assumptions of utilitarian ethics

@patrickc the issue seems much greyer. I'd be happy to hear a more stark version of my rephrased version of his argument, though!Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
