I don't use a blocker because the arms race leads to bad outcomes. I'm doing my part to postpone that as much as possible.

I've lived my whole life, just about, with an ad blocker in my browser, and I have yet to see the prophesised arms race. Maybe a dozen sites have refused to load the actual content, and of those only a couple asked me to subscribe (pay) for an ad-free experience (they were newspapers IIRC).
