I absolutely will not watch advertisements. Am I unique in this regard? I consciously block out advertisements, mute them, and use every method available to block them.
- matheusmoreira 3y agoYou're not alone. Nobody wants to see this garbage. I install uBlock Origin on every browser I come across and people always comment on how the web has suddenly become much nicer. They know. Even when they can't explain why, they know. I too mute my TV and pick up my phone when obnoxious ads start playing. Who wants to listen to this crap? Can you imagine TV companies pushing for technology that disables the mute, change channel and even on/off buttons while ads start playing? Magazines setting themselves on fire if you rip out the ad pages and throw them in the trash? If it seems like people are accepting of ads, it's really because they think it can't be helped. They think there's nothing they can do to prevent the unending flurry of corporate spam from grabbing their attention. If you show them a better world, I guarantee they'll like it.
