For those of us plugging in at home, ads can never happen.
Comment on Ads when you’re pumping gas

Never understood this. Sincerely hope that any place trying out here is shunned.
EVs will hopefully put the tactic out of business forever. ‘Plug in and fuck off somewhere else for half an hour’ is not a position you can really advertise in.
Unless it becomes ‘watch ad to enable charger’ 😬

I could see a “NetZero” approach to electric charging where you choose to watch ads for free or discounted electricity. Which will then turn into you having to watch ads to enable the charger.

Gotta boil the frog slowly I suppose.

Had an electric car for the last 7 years so I got jump-scared when I went to fill up a borrowed truck and an ad started blasting.
The first time I see a video screen on a charger I’m going to start worrying.

You should be more worried about the screens in your car…
