If I had more control over the types of ads I saw, I would accept this. Often I’m shown something very unpleasant in order to sell a dumb mobile game or something. If any of them had to follow the same rules many content creators had to, they would never be allowed.
The state of ads right now feels like what if Elsagate videos were mandatory to watch? If I really want to support a creator, I donate to them.
There are actually a few companies that try to fix this type of stuff, like carbon the idea is pretty simple: A small unobtrusive image and caption on a page, one ad per page, no auto playing audio or banners covering content. The company also enforces these rules to make sure that neither page designers nor marketers make things horrible.
