    I paid for the ad tier of disneyplus and use an adblocker. Seems to work well so far.

      I will call that a grey area. You still count on the roles as a sub of the ad tier. And probably in all the data it assumes you saw the ads. So it helps perpetuate the problem. But if enough people do it, it will reduce whar advertisers pay, which might reduce the problem.

        Yeah idk. I don’t want to support this but I also don’t want to spend anymore than the minimum on streaming. I plan to unsubscribe after finishing Andor anyway.

          I guess you could spend time to help make it easier for others to block ads, or straight up help them. That could tip the balance into doing more to fight it than to support it. Or just learn to straight up pirate. Then you are 100% on the fighting it side.
