I think as a child I got viruses from one of the ads, you know, the ones would put on the side of the site. We had to call in a guy, to clean parents’ computer. I felt really guilty and never touched those ads again.
So Google’s and Meta’s main business are ads. And recently I felt confused. Do people click on ads? Don’t these ads feel phishy to them?
My Internet has Pihole and uBlock. I don’t know what these ad things are.
Does pi hole help with chatty smart tv’s talking back to the mother ship?
Yep, you can block the domain it talks too.
