Glad you like the ad-free, high quality content. How would you like to pay for that?

In the mid-term I'm glad to be subsidised by American users who forego their privacy and are willing to get served a lot of ads.
In the long term I would be happier if we'd all be treated with equally high privacy standards and pay for the content we consume. For that to happen we only need one thing, Americans and their legislators need to start valuing their privacy too.

Nah, this works the same way pharmaceutical drug development works: US citizens pay and everyone else gets the benefit.
