Alas, the state of the tech advertising industry…
Honestly, it’s all so exhausting I’m just so damn tired. You can’t even buy an OS anymore that isn’t loaded to the brim with bloat and spyware—provided BY THE MANUFACTURER nonetheless.
Honestly, once Windows ten is end Of life I’m done with tech industry.
I’ll go to the library and read some books; I’ll use a pen/pencil; I’ll wander, blissfully into the sunset.

- baktubi 5y agoI agree Linux is great—and I shall continue to use the OS. But the online ads are even more exhausting than desktop-bound ads no matter which browser, no matter which ad blocker, no matter which OS. Not just ads but those annoying “cookie” banners … And let me just say: God help those who frequent TikTok… Their minds will be mush 2.0.
- natrys 5y agoEnable EasyList cookie filter for your Ad Blocker (uBlock Origin in Firefox highly recommended). This has drastically cut down number of banners I see.
