MODERATORS
They don't care. You were costing them money to show you video while not giving them anything.
I'm not referring to the people not giving anything. More people will leave that originally watched ads.
The post says that they're targeting people who use adblockers, though.
Right. My point is that their response will have a large impact on other demographics. Their attempt is likely to backfire over time.
