Gen Y often talk about “responsible ads”. Or threads about “devs need to get paid (through intrusive ad platforms)”. It’s… exasperating. I got a notification on my Android phone to configure topic reporting for apps a few days ago.

I've been lectured about "stealing" content by not subjecting myself to ads, like what? The corporate brainwashing is real.

Yeah there's a really common misconception that the mere act of viewing ads somehow supports content producers.
