I use ad blockers and open source privacy focused software whenever I can but occasionally I have to use computers that don’t belong to me or an older phone where my usual applications aren’t installed and seeing all the advertisements just feels dirty and dystopian.
I think the worst ads are the text to speech ones that say “Download this app today”. The unblinking energenic people saying you can make a living at home are probably a close second.
Most people don’t appreciate it when you install software on their personal devices without their permission.
Nobody said that.
Boy would this be the quickest way to make sure I never allow you to touch my electronics again.
Fine. I don’t appreciate it when assholes inflict ads on me, so we’d be even!
