You want compensation if an ad offends you?? Your pathetic
- TravelTechGuy 11y agoI want a compensation when a tasteless add, showing a gif animation of a scantily clad woman, trying to sell something irrelevant, pops up while I'm in my office. Or when a religious, inciting ad tries to piss me off. Yes, we all learned to grow tougher skins on the internet - but if I'm opting in to trash, I should be compensated for being exposed to it. The alternative is saying "just don't look" === "turn on your adblock".
- Paganini123 11y agoIt seems to me society just likes to lean on the "i'm offended so you owe me now" crap. This is exactly what causes real people to not be able to get anything done because we can't speak the truth on anything that may "offend" someone. With that being said you requesting they compensate you for something you find offensive is ridiculous, especially when you have an adblock program. If you are afraid an ad may offend you, don't use the sites that require you to disable them. But another alternative is to just go into your console and see if the content blocking access to the site is client-side. Then simply delete it and move on. Similar to what people use to do to get past the NYTimes website requiring a username and password or to proceed to the create a new user page which required a subscription to the paper online. Why do we have to keep catering to the thinned skinned because their feelings get hurt? It's out of control, and I will not be silent about it, no matter how much it offends anyone.
