am I reading this right that you would pay and still get advertisements, just not targeted ones?
What a bargain, right??
And not even get subscriber content, it's £7/mo literally just to get non-targeted ads
lmao really? so you’re still a non subscribing pleb that gets the “please support our cause and subscribe” stuff but you literally only no longer get targeted ads? Shameless
"You will also need a subscription to view subscriber only content"
Double-dippers.
I mean the internet has become a piecemeal existence where you’re expected to add on things like it’s McDonald’s so I guess this is just the next step in the trend
I miss 1997 when the internet and all the information on it was free (save purchasing a computer and the monthly fee for an isp, if you want to be pedantic I guess)
It's also a game of "how much shit can people put up with before we start losing revenue"
