I use a pihole.
What I won't do is write a diatribe about how what I am doing isn't going to deprive websites of a ad impression or that the websites deserve it because of how many ads whey paste across their site. I do it because it's simple for me to setup on my network I have control of and it makes my browsing expriance better, I fully accept that if everyone acted like me then most websites will end up behind a full paywall.
Its people who pretend what they are doing is justified and moral over just being easy to do with nominal risk to themselves. Just own it bro, that's all I ask. You do it because you can, it's easy and you're unlikely to get caught.
