The average person would rather view 100 adverts than pay 1 cent to get rid of them. We see it time and again.

The average company would rather charge that 1 cent and still show adverts. We see that time and again.

Do we see that? What I see again and again is companies pretending to make that offer and then adding ads anyway. You can only fool people so often.
