Why is it OK for you to come to my content site with your ad-blocker software turned on? You know that is how I get paid, right? Why is my effort in setting up a site, paying for servers, programmers, writers and support staff which you then utilize and take advantage subject to theft? You guys all get outraged when someone around here copies an idea, but it is OK to steal the content from websites that you visit with your ad blocker on. How do you justify that?
I have had some people looking at some things on my site redesign both here and another outlet I use and have had feedback on issues that turned out to be because ad blockers were on. I am appreciative of the feedback and I AM NOT calling anyone in particular out on this (thanks and rep was given)! But it got me thinking...
So if you use an ad blocker, tell me why it is ok for you to steal. AND tell me why I shouldn't snoop your browser when you visit my site and if you have an ad blocker on, why shouldn't I kick your thieving butt to the curb and deny access. Really, I am looking for some dialogue on this.
