Fuck ads at the gas pump - Lemmy.World

Idk if this is the right instance for this, but how fucking tired of these forced ads at gas pumps is everyone else? I’m paying 4 bucks a gallon to have you shove advertising down my throat like an erect cock? What the actual fuck Anyone have any good ad blocking practices for this? I’ve seen duct or painters tape covering the speakers… You can press a button next to the screen to mute it, but this doesn’t work at all gas stations. (Usually its the 2nd from the top on the right side) I guess its just time to gettoblast music every time I pump gas like back when I was 19…

The ones here, you can’t mute. Pisses me off so bad I will refuse to back to a gas station. I have even pulled up seen the ads on another pump and drove off. I’m fucking captive! Congrats on losing money greedy fucks!

Are there any potential repercussions for sticking a utility knife into the speaker grill?

Mild electric shock and a vandalism charge if caught. Worth it? I don’t know but I’m getting sick of the fucking ads.

Most gas stations are monitored with cameras, so they will be able to see your face and license plate, then charge you with vandalism.

In another thread someone said they carry a sharpie marker with them and label the button(s) you need to press to mute the audio for future people.

I also always have a sharpie on me and often use it to fix the missing labels on these pumps.
