Adblocking. IS. Piracy.Stop using adblock chud,Oh you're a poor wagie who makes $12/hr at a shit job with a horrible life and just want to watch entertainment to distract from your shit life? Well it doesn't matter because the youtube multmillionaires who barely put in less than 2 hours of work a day on videos need YOU to turn it off so they can make more money. You're stealing from them, plain and simple.
>>106763069Adblocking is piracy (and that’s a good thing)
>You're stealing from them, plain and simple.Yes, and?
>>106763069Linus needs BBC correction
>>106763069Oh no, not piracy. I totally don't do that regardless of whether or not I block ads
>>106763069My network my choice
>>106763069I'm not stealing, the original video does not disappear if I watch it without ads.
>>106763069>Not. Clicking. An. Ad. Is. Theft.>you MUST buy from Adsif no one clicks and buys, advertisers won't sponsor on Youtube anymoreno more ads, no more money, no more platform, no more contentso buy at least $15 per month of stuff via Youtube ads, thank you.
>>106763069if ad blocking was theft I'd still adblock so kys kike
>>106763069reposting same shitthread year after year is piracy
Ads are offensive to me. I'm retired from crypto and I'll always block them. I pirate movies too.
>>106763069>Stop using adblock chud,No.
>>106763134fpbp
>>106763069>watching less content and loading less media is pirating content because... Because it is you pirate!
>>106763069Piracy is two things. Seaside maraudering and illegal acquisition of copyrighted intellectual property. There is nothing illegal about ad blocking. There just isn't.Come back when it's written crystal clear in the law that eulas override basic human right for privacy and self defence against harrasment>t. esl
>>106763069Adblocking is piracy.Piracy is good.
If adblocking is piracy then leaving cookies on my system is vandalism, and fingerprinting me is stalking
>>106763069ads are cancer and so are (you)
>>106767262kek. spot on
>>106763069I'm unemployed tho
>>106763069i saw that venting several times in the past, yet, the question still remains the same . . . . .why are so called "creators" only supported by ads instead of being supported by their own creations and who the fuck need advertising ads if he, or she, is a very good artist in their job?
>>106763069>Adblocking. IS. Piracy>Stop using adblock chudMake me you fucking faggot nobody will do shit also buy a fucking ad

>>106763069>you're a poor wagie who makes $12/hr at a shit job with a horrible lifeSounds like a confession.
>>106767262And, and 16 year old teens dressed like that is sexual harassment.
>>106763069Blocking ads is to piracy as serving ads that take precious time from existence on this mortal plane, is to murder.
>>106763069It is not theft because you are not subtracting anything. Also it's not piracy because you are not making illegal copies. You are just choosing not to see intrusive advertising pushed onto your screen. That is the same as not buying something advertised on youtube because you find it annoying.
LINUS IS A LYING FAGGOT
>>106763069I would argue that unsolicited advertisements in public spaces is vandalism. Hey Linus if you're reading this just know that I would have bullied the shit out of you in school.
>>106763069"We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem, if a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate's service is more valuable."
>>106763069The Jews want me dead and destitute, of course I am going to fucking pirate. Earn my money if you will.
>>106763069>chud,Are jeets using this term now? I thought it was just a tranny-made up word?
>>106763069Reminder that LTT was pirating OCCT when they made this tweet
there should be ublock-origin mods or even the alternative one.they've been pretty shit lately
>>106772640send a PR to fix whatever you're seeing
>>106763069Except nothing is being stolen, I'm just duplcating certain 1s and 0s
>>106763069>Adblocking. IS. Piracy.you misspelled privacy
>>106763069I don't even watch modern YouTube videos
>>106768514Just run adguard if you’re going that way
>>106767262>and fingerprinting me is stalkingit unironically is
>>106774551buy an ad for your proprietary garbage
>>106763069>so they can make more moneyThis shouldn't be a career in the first place.How do we accelerate total youtube death?
>>106763069kys rageb8ing kike
>>106763069>multmillionaires who barely put in less than 2 hours of work a day on videos need YOU to turn it off so they can make more moneySo you're just trying to troll Linus, yeah? That post was made 3 years ago, I am sure he would recant his stance if properly confronted.The truth is: within an optimized capitalist civilization, data should never be free. Beings put in very hard work to collect and collate that data, so why should you be able to access it for free? You're most likely too retarded to fabricate the same quality of data within a reasonable frame of time, so you should be barred from accessing that data until you pay the appropriate fee. The fee is the energy(money) you're willing to trade in order to access that data(purified energy). Let us say you wish to pirate a gaynime like the faggot you likely are. If you were sufficiently creative, you would be capable of transforming your energy(money) into artistry(purified energy) all by yourself. But you're not. You're most likely nowhere near capable of turning your energy into purified energy.The real problem is the advertising agencies. A parasitical complex of middlemen that have perfectly situated themselves inbetween this (previously)unsolvable conflict, yet the hilarious solution is their total annihilation. Once the middle man parasite that are all the advertisers of earth are entirely obliterated, artists will be able to fully reap their completely justified wealth. This is the age of relatively instantaneous data transfer for your civilization. Anyone can inform anyone of anything. There was a need for advertisers 1800s-1900s. In 2000s? Your best friends are your advertisers. Realize the insanity of paying even a single cent to these parasites and then the adblockers will go extinct. Artists that do not get paid do not output work. So they will be paid, if their work is what you truly desire. Likely far, far more than what they currently are.Why Linus couldn't simply explain this? Idk
>>106763134This.Fuck that op guy.
>>106763069Most modern sites are filled to the brim with intrusive malvertising, so nah, keeping AB on.
>>106763069no, it's not you spastic retard. consider the possibility of learning what this word means. or any other words you use and don't know the meaning of (i assume there's no shortage of those).
>>106763069>>106765940What do you mean "atleast $15"?What about the poor advertisers who have such a genuinely shit product that nobody would buy it even if people were forced to buy shit? Do you want your poor "content creators" to lose their platform patronage?You will buy everything. Actually, you will buy everything in atleast the amount they pay us for.They pay us to get you to buy two, you buy two. Got it?Fuck you, subhuman.
>>106763069>2022dead internet
>>106763069Ads are pirating my precious time and attention so blocking all ads is the right thing to do.
>>106767284OP is shit stirring. Linus also said he doesn't care if you want to pirate. He pirates too. Also, LMG has diversified to making clothes, screwdrivers, backpacks and soon USB cables. Their side business now bring in more money than ads. They also even made a video platform from scratch.
>>106763069Add blocking would only be piracy if on a regular basis the ads actually influenced you to purchase an item after you clicked on them and learned more about the item. Be real with yourself, when was the last time you were sitting down watching television and saw a Colgate toothpaste ad and were like "wow 9 out of 10 dentists recommend Colgate? I better get some Colgate". It's never happened. Not even once. Therefore, you are not depriving anyone of any income by simply hiding the ads.
