Ads are responsible for the enshitification of everything. Literally everything.

- Why is online news just partisan rage-baiting? Ads

- Why is real journalism dying? Ads

- Why are your web search results less helpful? Ads

- Why are recipes 2,000 words long? Ads

- Why is social media engineered for scroll-maxxing?

- Why is your car/TV/refrigerator spamming you?

- Why are pharmaceuticals so expensive?

- Why is your population voting for assholes?

Future generations are going to look back at how we live with advertising the same way we look back on leaded gasoline and asbestos.
