As an American, I wanted to read this but I got distracted and then bored because it's just text.

Who pays first? The user, the content creator, or the content host?

I couldn't care less. If my adblocker is that final straw that caused a company to go out of business, brings on the collapse of the internet as a whole, and ultimately the breakdown of western civilization, then all of it deserves to die. With that knowledge, I'd still update by block lists and donate to adblocking projects.

It also fails from the arts and sociology perspectives.

how can illegal immigrants send money home but regular workers live paycheck to paycheck?

They live six to a room.

...and the rest of their family spends those dollars on a 3rd world cost of living.

The frustrating thing is that there's no clear way to know exactly how much you're exposing yourself with this. Even the article (and related links) don't spell it out adequately (IMO).

For example, I just purchased a new(ish) 2022 Nissan. I don't have the Nissan app on my phone and I don't subscribe to any of their connectivity services. Is my data staying in the car or is it finding some conduit back to Nissan? Is connecting my phone to the console for music and maps opening me up to Nissan's data collection? Is using bluetooth for music and hand-free calls exposing my data? Is there any way to know the specific avenues for data collection that present a risk and how can they be mitigated?

Tabs suck. Use a real editor and spaces work fine.

It is much, much easier to setup than syncthing, uses a decent GUI interface that works well with Linux, Mac, Win, iOS & Android. Lots of additional features beyond file sync/sharing.

I'm waiting for Slackware 15.1 to be released with support for aarch64; I don't want to deal with all the updates that maintaining -current requires. The 32bit version worked well on my Pi 3b with the setup from this project.
