    Regardless whatever we’d be willing to pay, there’s no way for uBO to effectively route the collected funds out to all publishers (also I guarantee there’s gonna be a fight of “views on my site are worth more than theirs”), and so the cat and mouse game will continue forever.

      I do not want my money to go to paying off publishers. I want my money going to support well funded and continuous development of a product that defeats their current business model. I hate being tracked and sold. I want the entire system to die.

          Nah. People should stop making careers out of tracking and selling peoples information.

            Using YouTube, even with adblock, supports the idea that there is a market for this content and that it can be monetized.

              Let’s flip the script.

              Using uBO, even on youtube, supports the idea that there is a market for an adblocker and that it can be monetized. Which if you read my top comment in this thread…

          Advertising is mental pollution. Opening your window to teams of people with PhDs in lying and manipulating you to just say whatever the hell they want.

          No, it’s about voting with you money against a whole way to do business. Long live FOSS, long live adblockers!

      I may not be smartest tool in the shed, but couldn’t they collect funds on one shared account, and manage those funds after voting or other type of deciding power in the organization?
