Tom & Ben?

I’m the same. It is quite jaring to see an add now. They seems very obnoxious.

The only issue in have is ads in podcasts. This isn’t a huge deal as the provider usually determine add based on IP so i get a 30 second ad in a language I can’t understand.

Any solutions to this?

P.S. before I switched from YouTube I disabled all data collection and personalisation a few notable ads I used to receive:

• Ads for balls soap (this ad was repugnant)
• Ads for Muslim speed dating, with male chaperone (I’m not a Muslim)
• A 1hour Chinese party political conference, in Chinese (I don’t speak Chinese)

I remember a time when YouTube was not owned by google and was ad free.

The internet was better before all of this tracking.

I think the root cause of a lot of societal problems is education and, related, funding.

The problem, as I see it, is that education doesn’t pay off within an election cycle and ‘fixing’ the symptoms of problems with surveillance, force, buzzwords etc. is quite immediate and visible. It also generates demand for certain economic sectors.

We’re far too focused on the “just ban phones” quick win mindset.

Why do you say that?

I get it but Canada is in America.
