- title: Hypocrite faiblesse
-
- > I guess what I’m saying is this: I want to stop reading ad-supported websites. I don’t want to steal their content by browsing with an ad-blocker, I want to *ignore* their content. I need a content blocker that blocks *content* too. Will I miss out on some stuff that’s truly impressive, truly hilarious, truly insightful? Undoubtedly. But I’ll also miss out on a lot of garbage, and a ton of garbage ads. So that will be nice.
- >
- > Will I do any of this? No, probably not. Sites like *Buzzfeed* and *The Verge* are too enticing. I am weak. Which means I probably shouldn’t run an ad-blocker, because then I’m just being a hypocritical jerk in addition to being weak.
- >
- > But man, wouldn’t it be nice to live in a world where I never have to read something that was written for the sole purpose of traffic and revenue? Where I only read things that need to exist, or are worth money on their own merits? Imagine this: words, on the internet, worth paying for.

- Il faudrait que j’essaye de naviguer sans bloquer les publicités pendant une journée pour voir un peu ce que ça donne (malgré [les dangers](http://esquisses.clochix.net/2015/09/21/pub/) ([cache](/david/cache/d0137802fa4d2123f8a2085c542f0106/)) et [l’inutilité](https://piacentino.com/jb/2015/publicite-en-ligne-ou-va-largent) ([cache](/david/cache/32cf7de47d303e6cd104b8117dabfcc2/)) [mesurée](https://piacentino.com/jb/2015/publicite-en-ligne-ou-va-largent-suite) ([cache](/david/cache/d27b2bb51eafc36c9bd1a5b0ba741114/)) de la chose). Sachant que je n’ai pas navigué sans bloqueur depuis au moins cinq ans. Du coup, je ne sais même pas quels sites sont plus respectueux que les autres et je perds l’empathie pour les utilisateurs. Enfin, je réalise que ce ne sont pas forcément les miens d’utilisateurs vu que je n’ai pas travaillé sur des sites basés sur ce *business model* depuis plus de cinq ans aussi… une chance ? Un choix.
