If the cost of not having the toxic lies of advertising trying to trick people, the toxic effects of the ad-based business model corrupting all of our media, and the toxic effects of advertising-based political campaigns, is to have to pay a few pennies to someone providing a service I actually want, I don’t see a downside.
Advertisements are not bad. We have to regulate them though. If you do not want advertisements then every single service you use would be paid.
