  • I do too. I know it’s a very elitist thing to say, but the internet, while not as vast as it is now, was way better when it took some effort to browse the web. Like a pc, a modem, some knowledge, troubleshooting etc. It was like a bouncer, keeping some people out. I haven’t had home tv for like 15 years now, and the only time i see live tv is when i’m at someone’s home and the tv is running. No joke, i would rather not watch tv at all. Same with the internet. I’ve never been a social media guy, but someone tried to show me something on facebook the other day, the last time i saw facebook was when someone showed me their farm on farmville. It was pure nightmare fuel. I can not imagine apending my time like that. I know different people enjoy different things, but that seems really dumb, and these people are the reason you even beed adblockers, vpn, a piehole, cookie deniers and whatnot.




  • I know so many people who claim it’s just easier to watch ads and click them away and tell me about their little hacks, it’s crazy. Looking at a strangers phone gives me anxiety. My sister always tells me that watching tv isn’t that bad, and she’d record it and skip ads, which to me is already insane. NOW YOU CAN’T DO THAT ANYMORE. She said she can still skip it, but not on the “good” movies, it still works on some trash tv and daytime stuff. They clearly took that away by choice and she’s still like: it’s just like 5 ads a movie, we just go to tge toilet or whatever. Same with navigating the internet. Well yeah, you just ignore the pop ups and agree to all the cookies
