I get these ads sometimes:
If you’re not familiar with them and don’t speak Swedish it’s just a questionare about which car-brands I’ve seen ads for lately. Now… Why would I answer this? Do Google think that we’re concerned with the welfare of their ad system and its customers? We netizens put effort into avoiding ads. We’re good at it too. What makes Google think that we’re going to put effort into helping them figure out how well they’ve done in brainwashing us?
Advertising as a basis for funding online services is a scourge but it seems the real world is mimicking the internet, rather than the internet learning that maybe harassing people isn’t a great way to build your brand. Thank God for YouTube Premium or I’d go nuts. … Okey, fine: I’d go more nuts.
Edit(2022-09-28): I don’t get these ads any more because I’ve set up a Pihole cluster. Enough is enough.
