Just so we’re clear, you’re proposing UBI as a solution to a global website showing ads
Paying to access content makes a lot more sense that hoping someone willingly watches an advert on their own hardware.
An indirect, alternate could be universal basic income - which makes it easier for people to choose less profitable options.

Right. Turns out UBI is a solution to a lot of things.

Are you aware that more than one country exists?

To authors of works getting compensated for sharing their efforts. So here it’s a video content on a website, but also any other works on any other protocol.

A lot of people either don’t want to pay, or can’t pay (eg people in developing nations with very low income). I agree that UBI would help, but we’re a long way off from that being a standard thing in one country, let alone worldwide.
