exactly why i dont mind blocking ads.

not a business model i wouldnt mind not supporting and companies i wouldnt mind not depending on.

and it is used for nefarious political purposes that are undemocratic at best.

Hot take: If you don't like ads, then don't use services/sites that are funded by ads?
