Wow. This rubs me the wrong way. Hope there's a way to crush this....
I would happily find/join a corner of the web that's more reminiscent of the older world wide web, where shit like this doesn't fly. Just people sharing knowledge and discussions and self made pages on random topics. Completely free from corporate influence. I get that servers aren't free, but with the speed of domestic internet and the power of current hardware I don't think it's impossible to set it up cheaply and not have to rely on ads to keep running.
We'll make our own internet! With blackjack! And hookers!
