You don’t need to track people to pay for things with ads. You can advertise based on the surrounding content pretty effectively. It’s what TV channels have done for years.

Behavior ads or paywall is a false dichotomy.

And news papers. And a long time ago, that's how Google ads worked too.

Contextually relevant, non-intrusive, respectfully done untargeted advertising is acceptable. Quoting myself from earlier times: https://bostik.iki.fi/aivoituksia/random/no-stalking.html
