MS vs US back in the 90’s did not result in anything significant. This pretty much will happen again with Google. Some lobbyists will just do their thing, some minor slaps in the wrist and concessments between DoJ and Alohabet etc and Google will continue to Googling around.

- Comment on It shouldn't matter if people work multiple jobs. The former VP of HR at Microsoft shares how to react to double dippers — 'get over it.' 1 year ago:
The real question is why do people need 2 jobs? If its just ambition or wtv then ok, but if its out of the need to pay the bills and just get by, why is it happening? Or course its convenient for this mfers to say that. Better have people working multiple jobs to get by and keep their mouth shut then having them rebeling, joinin unions, protesting and so on.

Ok I see. Why is Chrome store still having ublock origin there and others? I’d just remove it. But they let it be there for everyone to download.
- Comment on Mozilla Senior Director of Content explained why Mozilla has taken an interest in the fediverse and Mastodon 1 year ago:

- Comment on YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers 1 year ago:
if the platform decides which and where the ads will run during the video on load I dont see how this could be blocked.
- Comment on YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers 1 year ago:
I think it wouldn’t be that dificult to figure out what is interesting for people watching the video since channels themselves already usually have a target audience. If I am watching a video from a dude who focus on video games or tech odds are I’d be more interested in tech adds. But if Google REALLY wants to know what we need/want then yeah maybe you’re right. Shit it happened so many times me just saying the word pizza or shoes/snickersnwoyld set off a pizza ad later in my phone. These mfers want to inject ads on our souls.
- Comment on YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers 1 year ago:
What prevents them from going in video adds? Technically difficult? Or what?

- Comment on youtube getting more agressive 1 year ago:
What about pipe like solutions hostux etc? How do they work? Is it through API? Can Google block it like reddit did theirs? Also if google is so concerned about add blockers why do they allow those extensions in their Chrome store?

- Comment on YouTube cracking on ad blockers. 1 year ago:
People should be able to choose if they want to see ads or not. When I need a product and start product hunting than that’s the perfect time to open yourself for “suggesting a thing” as you call it. Now if I am just browsing a page like reddit or whatever and see an ad that I really don’t want to see, don’t need etc etc. THAT is brainwashing because it stays unconsciouslly on your mind if you see it enough times which increases the chances that you’ll act on it, buy, think about it. This is basic stuff.
Many many years from now IF humanity has not wiped out itself and actually evoved, this statement:
“Advertisement is brainwashing and should be against human rights.”
Will be 100% absolutely true.
