I will literally go out of my way to see an ad. I have stopped watching TV, except some HBO but avoid paying. I am searching random questions or products in incognito so my regular chrome isn't garage ads.
I watched a TV in a public space last week. The show was sped up and packed with ads. I watched more ads then show in 20 min.
TOTALLY get it. I've gone as far as blocking ads at the router-level so I don't see ads browsing the internet or using apps on my phone inside my network. Plus I have ublock origin to help catch any extra ads that sneak through the router block.
To say I see no ads is an understatement. The only reason why I know about the "he gets us" ads is because I hear people complain about them. Not once have I seen one hahaha.
