I think as a child I got viruses from one of the ads, you know, the ones would put on the side of the site. We had to call in a guy, to clean parents’ computer. I felt really guilty and never touched those ads again.
So Google’s and Meta’s main business are ads. And recently I felt confused. Do people click on ads? Don’t these ads feel phishy to them?
Every time I search a company website on Google and I don’t like the company and want them loose money. If I like the company I click the normal search result.
Oh I like this.
I have a pihole so I instinctively never click the ad result, because I don’t want companies to think ads are working.
I thought I was the only one that did that lol
