    No, that’s just how it appears through the advertising revenue model.

    Bear in mind this model has been actively developed over the last 20+ years. Imagine of other models enjoyed that kind of attention.

    Consumers pay for ads in product costs. Access for poor people is a myth.

      If you are too poor to consume the advertised items/services then the actual customers of those products/services are paying for your access.

      I personally use an ad-blocker, but I only hate ads because they can be a vector for malware. P.s. I also use StartPage as my search engine of choice.
