How that actually works in practice is that your favorite sites make less money and your IP gets a bad reputation so you CAPTCHAs or outright blocked. There’s no “sticking it to the man” here, just contributing to the frictional grind making the internet worse for ordinary people.
They make less money, but they also notice lower conversion rates on ads, which might make them rethink their strategy.
(IP reputation keeps me from doing it though.)
