It's a beautiful day outside.
Birds are singing.
Flowers are blooming.
On days like these....

old-reddit can still do it while logged out. It's only new-reddit that requires logging in.
Looks like AIs run on Moon Logic.
Hello
Reverse psychology is the best psychology.
The main problem is that his videos are like "I saved 1000 kids from the orphan grinding machine!", and I'm just like, why is the orphan grinding machine even a thing.
Like when he restored sight to 1000 blind people. It's a good thing, but also, it's a drop in the bucket and why isn't public healthcare doing that for all blind people?
Yes and no. It's harder, but even with an adblocker, your internet signature (things like browser size, are you blocking ads, did you send a "do not track" header, etc) is enough to identify you in a lot of cases. AdNauseam goes the opposite direction, instead of hiding your data, it fills their data collection with so much garbage that they'll have a hard time figuring anything out about you. From what I understand, it doesn't actually load the ads, just sees where the ad points to, and tells the ad provider that you clicked it while at the same time blocking it. So it would be very slightly worse in terms of performance and data usage compared to uBlock Origin, but not in any noticeable way, since the stuff it sends is much smaller than any actual content.
Streaming services are a good example. They've forgotten the reason they exist is due to being slightly more convenient and user friendly than piracy.
I expect adblockers will find a way around that. If nothing else, AdNauseam should work, as it tells the site that you clicked all of the ads it's blocking (making it much harder for them to build a profile on you).

Fun fact: Firefox on android can use addons. You can use uBlock Origin on mobile as well.
