Average users will not have the knowledge or patience for work arounds.
Imo, the larger problem seems to be the majority of users appear to be fine with ads and data collection just to watch a movie or series.
They're not "fine with ads and data collection" so much as they don't care and can't be bothered to look for a better way.
It's just apathy and a bit of lazy inertia.
This implies they are fine with it by tacit agreement.
No, it implies that they don't understand that there is an option.
