Trash in the past, trash still today

[matrixmann]

That feeling when watching anything on TV and having to see the tons of advertising in commercial breaks and finding that they’re an accumulation of trash for the mind, designed with lots of distracting bright colors that call for your attention and empty suggestive messages, even direct unrealistic bullshit content (take the whole cosmetics and “body care” sector as an example for that) - will this ever end?

I am watching all in Internet through my computer so I am using add block which my son has installed me years ago. Add block is cutting all the advertising which is not placed directly into the videos and even then I am scrolling through it when it is possible. ;)

I don't live any different in the internet because otherwise it would be completely unbearable. (And it saves resources wasted on displaying superfluous content.)

Though, if I have to get in touch with advertising - maybe also as a result of keeping ads away from me a lot on other media -, I start to realize some things about it again.
