Comment on Massacre Gmail Ads with These Two Sentences (and Some Tragic Words)parent

Comments

You're not the internet. If nobody clicked on those ads, they certainly wouldn't exist.

I explicitly said "there are people that click on those ads". Those people don't have Ad Blockers. I don't click on those ads, so I have an Ad Blocker. All I was saying was that it doesn't present an ethical problem.

> I don't click on those ads, so I have an Ad Blocker.

It's probably the other way around: You have an Ad Blocker, so you don't click on ads.

No,seriously; there are a TON of people online who hate ads and NEVER click on them. Ever. So we use AdBlock.
