    If that’s how you’re using it, then I think it’s reasonable for them to make some revenue from serving you a constant stream of entertainment.

      I pay for Google premium and I support a few patreons, yes.

      That said, I still use ad block, sponsorship block, and privacy badger

      Stuff like YouTube content should be free to those who can’t afford it. Plus, my privacy is my own.

      Those are the two major issues here

          It shouldn’t necessarily be free, but the information about whether or not I’ve seen their ad is privileged. AdBlock detection is an invasion of my privacy and therefore AdBlock blocking must be circumvented.
