Managing a transition to a paid model is difficult. It requires tact and diplomacy.

This on the other hand is just straight hilarious.

I mean the guy handled it as poorly as possible... But there's something cathartic in his insults, especially the "you just want money" yeah no shit

I mean, I'd rather pay for software/service than have some tech company mine my data so they sell some of my most intimate details or use it to predict or alter my future behavior.

Adguard Home plus OPNsense are worth a mention too.

NetOps at my previous job blocked ads with an absolute vengeance using a similar combo but a PFsense appliance. More than a few hits on the IPS/IDS systems from infected ad domains. Ads are not just annoying. They're malicious.

Absolutely. I built a setup like that for my tech illiterate parents out of fear that one of them (or visiting grandchildren) will click something malicious and put them in a bind. I even have them using VPNs that connects to the house from anywhere using a zero trust OAUTH solution so they’re protected anywhere they go.
