And yet people tell me to "reform the system" instead of advocating to alternatives to the pathologically centralizing and ever daily more despotic USG.

I absolutely have adblock on my TV. My TV is a dumb monitor for an el-cheapo Linux box that just does web and local video files. I'll not be subjecting my dependents to any miserable privacy-compromising "smart" spyware from
