FBXL Social

It's sort of funny just as adblock is becoming less effective, I'm retreating into spaces that I know don't have ads because I run the websites.

I've been on YouTube premium for several years now, I'm happy to say that my son has almost never seen an advertisement. So while it may not apply to every single website that you go to, you are correct that for a lot of the most important ones you can just toss them a couple bucks and get the rich person's experience LOL

True, and it's already partially here since many videos monetize with ad reads as well as youtube revenue.

If it gets too bad, it just means that just like people abandoned cable, they'll abandon youtube.

I moved to paid hosting after an ad on my own website tried to install malware on my computer, a long long time ago.

OTOH, I require relationships with advertisers and salesmen because sometime they have stuff I want to buy and I need to know about it!
