  1. We had radio and TV shows because soap manufacturers paid for it. So product sellers placing ads in content is nothing new. AdBlockers are not piracy. 1- I can close my eyes during the ads. Is that "piracy"? (Is a one eyed pirate half a pirate? 😂) So there is no expectation or contract to watch the ads. 2- adblockers will evolve to buffer the content stream, and skip the ads. Like CDs. developed anti skipping technology. This demonstrates that there is no expectation, commitment to pay "with time"
