I'm not lying at all, and I won't be made to feel guilty for avoiding ads

Deep down you are kinda guilty already, don't ya? You know what you are doing is wrong and yelling and strangers makes it easier...

your accusation of bad faith is, itself bad faith

I'm guessing you feel like a bit of a mug for paying your hard earned money to faceless mega wealthy corporation so you want to believe that people who skip the ads without needlessly paying Google are stealing.

Well, they're not. They're just skipping ads.
