Gotta pay the bills somehow, and I’m just happy they care about privacy.

Toot

I dislike ads as much as the next person, and find uBlock Origin necessary for browsing the web, but the cold fact is that the internet is run with advertising, whether you like it or not.

If that is done without creating a profile on me, and without crippling the reading/viewing experience, I can tolerate advertisement.

Happy to see some sane comments here. Couldn’t have said it better. You can hate ads and still keep a foot in reality.

If ads are necessary for the internet, I’m going back to reading books. It was fun y’all.

They put ads in books too, unfortunately. The internet ones you can block.

Book ads are at least usually at the end of the book and for other books you might want to read. And they’re static. If internet ads were like book ads I wouldn’t have to block them.

I absolute despise ads but they are a necessary evil, it can be implemented well if it is not done intrusive and doesn’t take up more then the content it self. Also if it are mostly scam ads and such they might as well not have ads at all.

Fuck ads.

You’re lying to yourself if you think ads will ever be delivered without tracking.

This whole “anonymization” nonsense is a lie. It’s been shown, repeatedly, that data can be de-anonymised, especially data that’s not exactly narrowly collected.
