You know another thing is, these people who are arguing that Adblock is destroying revenue, and here's an example:

Need to realise that only a small portion of internet users are using adblock at the moment, and what the vast majority want is less ads; so not 20 invideo ads in a single video, not pre-roll videos all the time. If Google actually made a decision to make more sensible limits, for example by making it so that a viewer cannot see more than 1 video ad per 30 minutes no matter how many videos they watch; they'd probably stop most viewers from wanting to use adblock. But that would result in a far greater decrease in advertising revenue than having a few people simply block all the ads, and everyone else be subjected to unlimited amounts of advertising.
In the last 5 years I've had a lot of junkmail come through. I do one of two things - 1. I put it straight into the bin, 2. I burn it. I always do one of those two things. Salmat keeps delivering me junk mail anyway. I keep throwing it out or burning it. In the past 5 years I've never paid any attention, I've never opened them, I've never looked at or cared about who is being advertised. Now if I wanted I could put a label on my letterbox that says "no junk mail" - but that spoils the look, so I don't, but I could. And it would block all of that junk-mail advertising. And some people do that, it's no different to adblock on a computer.

"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
