> It is unethical to consume content without accepting [ads]

Well in my belief, ads are unethical. These two views don't reconcile. And since I'm in control of my computer, I get to decide if the ads play or not.

See it's sort of a non-argument. Saying something is "unethical" is just an emotive way of saying "I disagree with this".

Because if "ads are unethical" under your definition of "unethical", then I think it's totally fine for people to do "unethical" things.
