Have no fear, for the ads ARE already here.

* Want to watch YouTube ad-free on an iPhone? We've blocked every possible way unless you want to pay us - and we're still gonna spy on you.

* Not a fan of ads while watching TV? Well, tough luck. They're injected by the TV manufacturer.

* Want to pay for your content? Feel free to subscribe to Hulu, just don't expect ads to go away.

* Tired of seeing ads in Twitch? Well, Amazon sent legal takedowns to every successful ad blocker for Twitch - hope you're keen to write your own.

Sure sure sure: the techies here can workaround some of these. But your above-average person cannot, this has been normalized and is now _expected_.

I stopped watching twitch after Amazon took over. They changed it, it’s so aggressive and full of little dark patterns and micro rewards now to try and hook people
