Ads are manipulative and predatory, if you don't have a good extensive ad block on all your devices, you will fall for them even if you think you ignoring them, they are made and designed for you to get stuff subconsciously not knowing you are doing this. What really bothers me is how it actually can fuck up elderly and disabled people, had a ex who's parents actually bought things without realizing it because a ad played and they didn't know they was being coerced of emulated, they bought so so much things they didn't need with the Little money they had.
I will always provide help to people around me on how to block as much ads as possible on there machines, however possible. Fuck the corporations.
