Having to actively mute is still participating and interacting, which is actually way better from their point than ignoring.

You are entirely correct and rational for hating this.

I applaud the sentiment, but I think you are spitting in the wind. The cost to you in time and expense to go to a new station is surely more than the cost you are inflicting on the gas station. It is a battle you can fight, but not one that you can win alone.

Which is why he posted here,to get others to do the same.

Damn shame if a bit of the gasoline "accidentally" got on the screen. Solvents and plastic generally don't mix.

> Yes, I know I can mute them

Most places I’ve seen them, they cannot be muted.

Try all of the buttons. One of them will mute. Usually it's the bottom right one but not always.

The talking Sh_ll stations around here all seem to use the peninitial button on the right side. I carry a paint pen in my vehicle and write "<-- MUTE" any time I encounter one and there is no possible argument that could make me feel bad about it lol https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01E7EG3NM
