That's fine. I will either continue to use adblockers, pay, or stop using the internet outside of what is required to function in society. I already refuse to use anything that has decided to go ad supported without the ability to block ads and has a price I'm not willing to pay.

If small (or large) businesses require the mass collection of personal information by malicious advertisers to exist, then they don't derserve to exist.

stop using the internet outside of what is required to function in society.

I agree with the sentiment. But also consider the threshold for "what is required to function in society" is experiencing endlessly expanding feature creep. The great mass hysteria of 2020 dealt the heaviest blow.
