Taunting the general public. Always a winning move.
That’s some chaotic good shit
Now someone needs to make AR glasses with the sole purpose to detect and blur out ads
More likely that technology will be used to overlay targeted ads
Then, invariably, they put out a update that just puts in their own ads
Is this before or after they beam them directly into our dreams? I could really use a pair of lightspeed briefs…

Fuck chrome, Firefox with ublock origin
Agreed, FOSS ftw
Preach it, I’ll always take Foss options if they’re available.

This is called “being blind”.
Those Braille reader screens will start injecting ads.
And these dumb fuck advertisers will advertise something like car insurance on there.
I always get these spam letters in the mail about how I am preapproved for car insurance. Like I don’t even have a drivers license, so their approval process is clearly not very thorough.
It’s like when someone tells me something is unbreakable. It becomes my mission to come up with a way of breaking it.
I remember someone got into such a billboard and replaced the ad with IKEA-style instructions on how to replace the ads in those billboards.
Really ? got a link ? I wonder if the instructions work in any country (I assume the billboards are built differently)
Ooh I’ve also seen that, it was surprisingly interesting to watch

Probably the same kind of tool general population would need to take down capitalism itself.
But you won’t see this because your instance censors mine.
Technically they didn’t block it enough, you can still read the company name. Advertisers will love it even more because it will circulate social media. I hate this game.

Haha now if only they could do it in Times Square. That place is a giant eyesore.
I used to feel bad about using an ad blocker on the internet, but not anymore. I utilize PiHole and uBO for ad blocking now because the internet has literally become unusable without it. I never minded seeing ads, but they have gotten so brazen about it now with the most obnoxious ads possible. When the ads start negatively affecting the usability of the Internet there’s a serious problem. So they can either use respectful ad placement and get some revenue from me, or they can have them blocked and get zero revenue. It’s their choice.
