Yes, but small content producers don't control the public discourse on this. You're attacking something that has nothing to do with what I said.
But if you want to bring it up: I don't care. Small content producers who rely on advertising for revenue are just as bad as large content producers who rely on advertising for revenue. Just because you're a small business doesn't give you an excuse to rely on a bad business model.

Which content is that? Do you mean all that crap I have to sift through to get to stuff I care about? Or do you mean the stuff I care about that I would rather pay for than have to click around an ad?
Ad blockers are not hurting the internet, ads are hurting the internet.
The internet wouldn't exist without ads, kiddo. At the very least, it wouldn't be recognizable. It wouldn't be something that is ubiquitous to our daily lives.
The Internet I remember 15 years ago before there was a myriad of clickbait reposting sites was chugging along just fine.
Almost anyone who produces content and puts it on the internet makes money from ads. It's not just limited to "big media companies".
