Is blocking ads considered a hate crime now?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 12 hours ago

Corporations are a protected class of people.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ernie no!!

The wealthy aren't a protected class, it's not a hate crime.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Like hell they aren't. They're the most protected class.

People who complain about ads on the internet are such a weird concept.

Why experience ads if you don't want to?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Because ads don't ask for your consent.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

Sure they do, I've revoked my consent by installing an adblocker I haven't watched a video ad in probably 8 years.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

Ads are a bit mind-rapey

Shut your Pi-hole! My daddy had ads on the TV, and his dad had ads on the radio, and his dad had ads in the paper! I proudly allow ads and tracking!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I wish there was a way on Pi-hole to block those ads on TV yt

My favorite experience in this regard was watching YouTube on xbox (i know, i know)... They played a 40 minute redbull "ad" on a five minute video. In what sane world should ads be 8 fucking times longer than the content?!?!1?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 23 hours ago

I had a similar experience on my YouTube TV app, I was watching old history channels in bed, and there was a full length documentary for an "ad". I could have skipped after 15 seconds or whatever, but I had to INTERACT with the TV before it would resume. I was distracted so it ended up playing like 15 minutes of an hour+ documentary ad.

If you're getting ads on videos, you need to get you shit together and install uBlock Origin asap.

This has never happened to me because I’ve been blocking ads for the last 15 years.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago

Or when the skip button appears but only skips to the next ad

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Wish you could block ads from embedded youtube videos in Discord.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

I just copy and paste the link into my browser. Lets me make use of sponsorblock that way.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

I believe Vencord can do it

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

Me when ublock origin

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Haha jokes on you. I've been refreshing the website until the ad refuses to load. It just took 5 minutes

i find using freetube keeps Ernie calm.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I wish using freetube kept Ernie calm, but it just doesn't work half the time. Invidious has the same issue. Which is significantly more annoying than just using YT, which Ernie has uBlock Origin for.

UBlock as others have said. Or on android newpipe works well.

Edit: as a kind user pointed out, uBlock origin, not uBlock.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

uBlock Origin, not uBlock. They're different - uBlock Origin forked from the original uBlock.
