I refuse to maintain abusive relationships, and I hold technology to similar standards as humans.
So, if I hear that you rummage through people's address books and personal things, I don't deal with you anymore. If I come to you looking for an article, but you present me with ads or cookie banners or newsletter modals or paywalls, I just leave. Whatever you have is not worth it. If you do things without my consent, I avoid dealing with you anymore. If you think my browser or equipment is not good enough for your site, I turn around and leave.
It's been remarkably fruitful for me, as I noticed that those types of sites or properties also typically have low-quality content.
- p0d 5y agoInteresting perspective. The personification of tech. I went to a Show HN, someone's new website, and a third of the screen was ads. I left. At the same time I watched imdbtv last night with ads i e. this content is free with ads. I can live with this upfront approach.
