Sounds like 90% of your problem is ads then. Or going to shitty sites. Get on a decent tracker - even the good old one - and have an adblocker installed

Don't listen to this guy. He exists to overcomplicate things because he's just trying to fit in with other losers.

Download an adblocker. Stop using 'smart' features. Hook your computer up to your TV and get a wireless keyboard/mouse combo.

This isn't difficult, or complicated.

What part of my post was complicated? I quite literally said 90% of his problem is ads...

I'm really sorry that you lack the curiosity or confidence to figure out installing qbittorrent and, uh, clicking a link, but I need you to understand that "hook your computer up to your TV and get a wireless keyboard and mouse combo" is going to be more complicated and finicky for most people. Particularly people with kids who don't want a computer just sitting awkwardly in their living room.
