That's the thing though. If those ads are forced on you say like in-game ads you can't skip then I'll just do what I do with them. Something else. Volume down, attention elsewhere until it's over. Just like those old uns

I liked this article. It makes me happy I am not really effected by what it is saying. I have no social media, I don't see the point, and I only use whatsapp for family because they won't use signal. WhatsApp has a throwaway numbe

I use umatrix, awesome addon. I hardly ever see it recommend either, much better than noscript.

Oh I must have been confused when you said "end-users". But either way I think my analogy stands.

I wasn't alluding to cost as in money, though I do agree with others here that you're paying one way or another. In relation to Facebook user I was alluding to addiction and the way you pay for that addiction.

>"Facebook is like a game where the difficulty rises after you've had a taste of success. And by difficulty I mean you have to pay to reach your previously levels of success" Your analogy would sound better, and imo, refle

Well like I said I'm not from the US and have no answers to a system that seems completely and obviously open to abuse. I'm always puzzled why it's the way it is in the US, the whole justice system seems like a farce especia

I have many but I'll tell you this one. I once worked on a building that was essentially ruled by the office manager (henceforward to be referred to a the wicked witch, WW for short) of one of the buildings companies. The building man
