And it's always the same, AI-slop looking ad. I don't even know if I have sleep apnea, I just snore really loud sometimes cuz of my sinus issues.

Now tell the AI to generate one weird trick and the the doctors that don't want us to know about it.

You use Google Chrome don't you?

[–] irelephant@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 1 hour ago

I use chrome and there's working adblockers (ublock origin lite works fine).

Someone came so hard on that AI woman's face that her skin melted straight off.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 119 points 6 hours ago (4 children)

TBH I still cannot believe there are people using the internet without ad block in 2026

Fun fact: it is trivially easy and costs $0 to track an individual through their ad identifier. They're not supposed to uniquely identify people, but you really just have to drill down like a dozen or so variables and you'll uniquely identify just about anyone with a smart phone.

Hey, random person for whom this describes, are you

-Aged 30-34 -White -Male -Educated -Spends a lot of time near you work address -Spends a lot of time near you home address -Spends some time where you vacation the exact time you usually vacation there -Is a 49ers fan -Likes artisanal coffee -Android user -Listens to late 90s and early 00s metal -Wears pants size 38/32.

Guess what there's like 3 of you in the world. And we can get all 3 ad ids in the real time bidding market and track all 3 of you until we deduce which one is you.

Now I know where any person for whom I perform these steps is located, basically in real time.

It's that bad. It's a well known issue with I guess too much money behind it to fix? Idk.

I put it back on and it's working, thanks for reminding me

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 23 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Dont worry, I will always be the snarky asshole who talks down to people for not being like me any chance I get

[–] BeckyStjerne@nord.pub 14 points 6 hours ago

Fair, I used it for the site but it kept not playing the audio

[–] Thaurin@lemmy.world 7 points 5 hours ago

I think most people on the internet don’t even know what a browser extension is. Most people are not very interested in customizing or tweaking their computer beyond “push this button, stuff I want comes out.”

And ghostery if you want to avoid the cookie popups (auto denies).

[–] mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

Ghostery was involved in some weird info-selling controversy, weren’t they?

Edit: I looked it up. Yup, they were selling info about the trackers they blocked to the tracking companies they were blocking. So those companies could then figure out how Ghostery was blocking them, and circumvent it.

Apparently after that, they had another controversy where they started inserting ads to show to their users. Somehow that feels even worse, because the users who had it installed were trying to avoid things exactly like that.

[–] barzaria@lemmy.world 11 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

This really is the correct answer. I also beg you to install Ublock origin.

[–] ZoteTheMighty@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 hour ago

I too choose this guy's uBlock Origin.

[–] possumparty@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 3 hours ago

Respectfully, how the fuck do you not have an adblocker in 2026?

[–] krashmo@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Hvordan går det med norsklæringen?

[–] BeckyStjerne@nord.pub 3 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

Det går veldig bra, takk! Allerede lærer jeg ord for klær og smykker :3

[–] Sunny@slrpnk.net 1 points 51 minutes ago

[–] krashmo@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Brå gjort, fortsett sånn!

[–] BeckyStjerne@nord.pub 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Tusen takk!!! Er du norsk eller kan du bare snakke norsk?

[–] krashmo@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)
