The advertising industry is immensely powerful, and disturbingly opaque.

    How about teaching them to install Adblockers?

      Only helps wherever adblockers work, but I’m all for a multiple discipline approach!

        The only place adblockers don’t work is real world billboards.

          i would be much more interested in the whole AR-glasses BS if one of them had an app that blocks ads in real life

            I think ar glasses would be cool regardless but adblock is defiantly a top priority application.
