Most people dislike advertisements. There are those who don’t mind them if they are unavoidable, but I shudder to think anyone out there actually enjoys ads.

Ads are a necessary evil, though. They help fund products and services that would otherwise not exist without them — with Android Authority being a good example. Without funds from advertisements, huge chunks of the internet simply wouldn’t exist, to say nothing of television shows, films, and even hardware like certain smartphones.
