Just as with piracy I always wonder what percentage of the market really uses blockers, how relevant that segment truly is, and how much of it can be regained by simply improving service quality.
For example when it comes to ads I often see unhealthy lifestyle ads such as fast food. Or those money grab mobile games I wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole. I honestly wouldn’t mind being served a trailer for baldur’s gate, or an ad for a local restaurant.
Furthermore it’s not that I wouldn’t pay for something like YouTube. But it’s just that I have no choice as a customer in what service to use and it feels forced. YouTube is the only choice for many things. Google has an unfavorable privacy license and so I prefer to avoid them altogether.
So in my eyes it’s a service issue. It’s like they are mopping with an open faucet. It’s just a waste of resources.
