It's horrible to understand how much of the content we consume for free online is paid for by these scams. His açai ads were all over fairly major publishers' websites. The content industry relies on hugely regressive exploitation of the gullible and unsophisticated, and adblockers are only making it more regressive in the short term.

LyricFind which licenses lyrics from major publishers to websites is another example. They would license content to for free if you included their ads for "ringtone" subscriptions which were added to monthly phone bills in a process few consumers understood or expected.
