You probably block ads on YouTube to get stuff for free. I never said that you can't afford it.

(I'm using the royal you here, obviously, I don't know you)

People rarely pay when there isn't scarcity. Wikimedia can pull it off because it has billions of unique visitors per month.

What’s your point? I’m past the point of caring about freeloading on/off Google of all companies.

I might care about the lesser cut that creators get. But not YouTube.

I do, but I would still block it if I could.
