For this reason, the atrocity of marketing must be ruthlessly purged from human society at all costs in order to protect our fragile, easily manipulated minds.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk

    Prevention is better than cure.

    Use uBlock Origin, the best adblocker that money can't buy.

    Once again, that is uBlock Origin, the best adblocker that money can't buy.

    Terms and Conditions apply. uBlock Origin does not guarantee to block all ads. It is not a "sponsor blocker". It cannot block paid posts. Some sites may break, or refuse to display content while uBlock Origin is active. uBlock Origin does not bear responsibility for these issues.

      I've been using ublock for so long now that I genuinely forget about internet advertising every once in a while. But every time I'm reminded of how bad the internet ad problem actually is I feel so shocked and disgusted at the scale.

      Also, if only there was a way to block second hand ads from entering my brain when I'm around someone who watches tv. Holy fuck, how do people accept that shit? The ads are nearly as long as the programming these days, it makes me want to throw their television of a cliff.

      Know what's better than prevention?

      Total warfare.

      Why block ads when you can hide them while clicking them in the background, wasting the ad buyer's money while also sabotaging the advertiser's data?
