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.
Ooh I’ve also seen that, it was surprisingly interesting to watch
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.
