When it comes to dealing with advertisements when they’re surfing on their browsers. I’ve just learned recently about how Google has or is killing UBlock Origin on the Chrome browser as well as all Chromium based browsers too.

We’ve heard for years about people complaining, bitching, whining and vice versa about how they keep seeing ads. And those trying to help them, keep wasting time to tell these people that they’re surfing without extensions. Whether it’d be on Chrome or Firefox or another browser.

By this point, I’ve long stopped being that helper because if you cared at all about the advertisements you see, you would’ve long had gotten on the wagon of getting adblockers by now. You bring this onto yourself.

      Tipping point is the wrong word, because after a certain point it’s tipping and you can’t stop it. There are a few ways that applies, but it very much does not describe the whole situation.

      Climate change is a dial on a stove and we’re still cranking it.

      “You’ve chosen the wrong phone” is peak lemmy.

      Second only to “ditch Windows, use Linux. I don’t care about your use case”.

        but it is mutual. the iphone/android user share anyones data (e.g. contacts) with the most f’up corpos. just because something is convenient doesnt make it right. but as stated…nobody needs to be educated anymore, everyone knows best.
