If you watch Prime using a computer, Firefox + uBlock Origin extension block all ads on Prime. (So far... watched a film on Mercado Play the other day & their ads defeated uBO. Wonder when other sites will copy that tech.)

@clankussy it's worse than #shrooms!

  • It's more like being tortured with hallucinogens because people doing shrooms themselves consent to it.
    • Whereas forcing ads down peoples throats is just the non-criminalized and socially accepted version of spamming unsolicited dick-pics!

Not to mention that #Adblocking is a necessity in terms of ITsec due to #Malvertising!

#AdBlockers are a necessary #ITsecurity measure because #Malvertising is a huge problem!

Because by observation I can claim with confidence that most #JS is unnecessary #bloatware if not #malicious as it's #WastefulComputing and used to #track and #deanonymize users without setting #Cookies!
