Where I grew up, in the South, the answer to most questions was either "That's none of my business" or "That's none of your business".

Three’s ad-blocking initiative could kill the internet - SlashGear
No, fuckface, it's not that ad blocking deprives websites of the advertising revenue that enables them to provide the content I want.
What's actually happening is that my every move on-line is tracked, packaged, sold, analyzed, resold, repackaged, re-analyzed, and resold without end.
The result is that the viewer becomes the product: "We noticed when you drove your nine-year-old daughter Precious to St. Pedo VI this morning that your wife Gail's green 2004 Bondo could use a wash. Good news! EZ Splash is only $6 from 9-10 am today. They're only eight blocks from your house. Stop on by! Also, your driver's license expires next month."
So who's messing up your business model, me or you? If you want me to stop blocking ads, stop tracking and recording and selling every damn thing I do and say.
