Largest boycott in human history.
The only site I allow ads on is photopea.net because it's awesome and I use it regularly. Fuck ads otherwise
Only a billion. Need to quintuple that.
I actually don't mind ad but only if it is general ad, not targeted ones. Hence, why I hate web ads. I appreciate advertisements in more public spaces like radio and posters.
mostly desktop, android phone is mostly unusable with ads. use 'privacy badger', 'ublock origin', 'umatrix'.
