@derekwillis Not sure. But I guess somewhere around 5% of readers at least? Look at historical subscription rates? Worth trying I think.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@derekwillis Also, honestly. Ad blockers are around 20%. They can only go up. I don't see other paths. Maybe someone has one? Don't see any.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@derekwillis Don't you think adblockers will become ubiquitous? I hadn't turned one on since I write about this stuff but I was forced to.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes
@derekwillis My internet experience is so much better, no ads, no tracking. Still can't read on mobile because of ads. Only matter of time.
