I been on the internet since the 90s. I want to know what people are seeing. A commercial here or there keeps me in the loop about what is being pushed.
1 hour unskippable ads tells me a lot about what is going on, unfortunately.
Why do you need to be in the loop on ads?
I want to know what's going on in the world.And that includes knowing what advertisers are pushing down our throats.Political ADS ads for products, things like that.How they're going about it.
I care too much and it's beginning a problem in my personal life
