You don’t think it’s a little hypocritical to call people stealing when they’re just skipping ads automatically? You see a huge moral gulf between clicking a button and having a piece of software click the button? You pirated a bunch of stuff when you were a teen and now you’re on your moral high horse over someone blocking an ad or 300?

Yes. And I always was open about piracy I was just broke, but I didn’t lie.
Many ads are unskippable nowadays.
Skip 'em with an ad blocker for the win. Better experience, and you don’t have to pay megacorps with megaprofits your own money.
Skip the cashier in the big box store, same arguments.
