yes and no. I generally ignore the terrible ads on most websites and skip the ones before a video whenever possible, and yes I will actively avoid a lot of products/companies because of these ads.Maybe I'm from Mars, but is anyone else (1) in the habit of ignoring ads, (2) dis-inclined to buy from online ads that pierce their awareness?
Everybody claims they’re immune to ads. Nobody is immune to ads.Maybe I'm from Mars, but is anyone else (1) in the habit of ignoring ads, (2) dis-inclined to buy from online ads that pierce their awareness?
I find very very few ads to be of use. When I need to buy something I do some queries and figure out what to get. Ads and search placement are huge noise barriers for my purchases.
Ok, maybe I'm from Mars, anyways.

This. Advertising works. There's a reason it's a massive industry: it makes a lot of money.Everybody claims they’re immune to ads. Nobody is immune to ads.
That’s why advertising works. If everybody who claimed to be immune to ads was immune to ads, there would be no ads. So we all sit here boasting about how we ignore all ads, and the advertisers giggle.
So don’t worry. You’re not special.![]()
It's because people think ads are designed to make you run out and buy a thing, and they didn't. But they're not. They're designed to make you aware of a brand, and you are.If you think you're ignoring ads, you're just wrong.
It was nice while it lasted.So streaming with ads is exactly like having cable TV. The whole reason I canceled my cable and started streaming was to avoid ads.
Maybe I’ll go back to cable.
But, can I still be from Mars?Everybody claims they’re immune to ads. Nobody is immune to ads.
