I posted this question because I once saw a tweet that said something like:

"If you use adblock, you don't care about creator's point blank"

What is your opinion on this? Do you agree with them?

Also, at least in my experience, the people who most have a problem with this and make statements like "adblockers are piracy" or "adblockers kill creators" tend also to be the people who put dick pill and crypto ads on their website. The people most in favour of ads tend to be the people using the least tolerable ads on their content. In the same way that people who spout "no censorship anywhere, free speech at all costs" whenever their social media posts get removed tend to post content that serves as the best arguments for websites needing 'censorship.'
