Shovel, I need a new piece of software to do some amazing thing I want to do. When you have an open weekend can you develop that for me for free?

Your strawman is a red harring.
1. Adblock and piracy losses are less than loss prevention costs
2. The only profit made by AdBlock changes are on the executive level, not on the creative levels.
3. new products that are valuable are created at new companies, not old corperations that dont want to compete with themselves.
4. your argument, while hopeful, and coming from a good place... is just not based on reality and instead is a delusion that uneducated lead poisoned boomers who had everything handed to them.
5. facebook became the biggest tech company on the planet from nothing, based purely on not having advertisements, and providing a service for free.
6. Same with youtube.
7. Same with google.
8. Same with apple.
9. Same with Open AI.
10. etc. etc. etc.
