    Adblock exists, and as such, I never see ads. You could do the exact same, for the low low price of $0.

      I already do. I also want to pay my way.

      The problem is what I’d like doesn’t exist (I’m not going to subscribe you a million different websites and still not even be ad free) and probably can’t. How much do all the ads I’m blocking cost? It’d be ripe for abuse but I’d essentially like a taxi meter, but it would charge me for website use from just one central account that I top up or is part of my internet bill or whatever.

      I want the whole business model of using ads and tracking to pay for the internet to not exist.
