I think UBlock Origin should be awarded a Nobel prize, btw. Also, this reminds me of that Black Mirror episode, where you pay for everything by watching ads, the screens are your apartment walls, and when you close your eyes to the ads, the screen detects it and starts a deafening alarm. This is the future we’re headed for if we don’t start paying for content again, now

15 million merits. That was a good episode. Always made me wonder what the outside world looked like to force people to ride a stationary bike all day for power generation.

  In my headcanon the bikes were to keep the humans healthy. For the pleasure of their Simon Cowell leaders

I was about to say. I haven’t seen a YouTube ad in a decade between uBlock and Vanced. The updates are immediate.

They don’t take donations that I can find either. Really too notch people on that team.
