I hate ads.

That's it. That's all I wanted to say. Just loathe them with a burning passion. More than i do anything else in my day to day life. I feel an urge to scream it into the world every single day just how much i despise ads and whoever invented them.

I hate ads.

I can't escape them. I feel like i'm trapped in a sick psychological torture experiment. Can't even go outside for a walk without seeing them everywhere. This is not how human beings should live.

I hate ads.

Do the people who make ads not feel any shame for what they are doing? Stop trying to sell me your shit, i don't want it! I don't want to give you my money, stop trying to take it away from me!

I hate ads.

    It definitely wouldn't be impossible to counter, but it would be difficult. I don't really doubt that effective ad-blocking to server-side injections would appear sooner or later.

      From what I understand they did this on some other platform year ago and still there no real work around. Twitch maybe? Idk. The developer of sponsor block straight up said there is nothing they can do about them and the various anti-ad communities on Reddit are pretty much confirming that there's no way to block them. They MAY figure something out eventually but this is going to really mess things up for a while.
