I wish more people understood that if you had to pay for everything on the internet, it for modern intents and purposes would be dead. Even this site itself is a marketing device.

(of course it is possible to show advertising without tracking. there's a lot of context to be had in many cases).

I find it hilarious when people complain about paywalls etc. If you want zero ads, then you have to pay. How will you pay otherwise, magic or thoughts n prayers??

then I love the "I dont want my computing resources to run ads", well then dont read the article !!
