Google Gemini is so exited about that
| Hahaha, I found that funny that Google Gemini got hyped on this finding that DuckDuckGo can block Ads on YouTube without the crazy pain of installing extensions and so on. Literally, Google chatbot got excited about that, and is supporting me on my legendary discovery that now I am not an Ads consumer anymore [link] [comments] |
What if internet was paid and there were no ads?
I recently made a post asking why people don't use ad blockers often, and some people commented that the internet is only free because of ads which is true fact.
Now my thought on this is that internet ads actually make us spend way more money and manipulates our decisions. If the internet had no ads and we just paid a fee to use it, that fee would probably be much less than the money we currently waste on useless things we buy because of ads.
And the most dangerous thing is that those ads are just not product showcases they are evil manipulation tactics.
I’m not saying this would work for everyone.I know many people can't even afford basic subscriptions like YouTube Premium. But instead of every single app asking for its own subscription, maybe there should just be one general subscription for the internet as a whole. If we had that, it wouldn't even matter whose servers the ads are coming from.
Let me know your thoughts on what would have happened if internet was paid.
P. S. Yes I live in fairy tales.

Hulu is completely unusable now.
So apparently as of at least tonight, uBlock doesn't work on Hulu ads anymore. Tried getting AdGuard as well, did absolutely nothing.
The ads genuinely make trying to watch anything on Hulu impossible if you're like me and watch literally everything with subtitles, because apparently now the ads themselves *cut into the media time.* It doesn't cut away from media playback to "give" me an ad, it's like the ads have been hard-inserted into the media playback file itself.
Is anyone else experiencing this?? If so has anyone found a fix yet??

If Ad Blocking on Android is so easy why don't most people do it?
Two years ago, I found out that adding dns.adguard.com to the Private DNS settings on Android blocks ads in almost all apps and games. The only exceptions are apps like Instagram or YouTube, which serve ads directly from their own servers.
Still, most people are either unaware of this or don't use it for reasons I don't know.
Let me know in the comments if you didn't know about this hack, or if you choose not to use it willingly?
