I've read the paper more or less fully, first of all it's a cuban crisis re-enactment so nuclear threats are given, second one of the models is not like the other two, third it's just weird and feels like it's written by llm, a lot of comparisons and prose-like style.
How would I get by without expert opinion on correct way to pet a cat, especially when they state that cat actually doesn't like petting and just likes to suffer apparently.
His statement reads as "blocking ads is piracy ..." , it's factually not true, not that "it's moral to block ads even though it's piracy". Which still isn't true but can be accepted as not an unpopular opinion.
They are extremely useful and adorable. I think it's the violence that makes them so magical, like they are extremely cute cold blooded killing machines.
Actually this is an unpopular opinion or your circle is so different from the average that you are almost aliens, I have yet to meet someone that would sincerely say that they think that not watching ads is breaking social contract.
Understandable position and truly unpopular. My opinion is - ads are the raison d'être of surveillance capitalism of today and they often exploit our psyche in a ways that border on mind control, so minimizing my exposure to them doesn't break social contract, and most people don't block ads not because they think that it harms someone but because they don't know that it's possible.
It does not have anything to do with sea so it's not piracy, nor is it copying without license. You aren't in a contract with people that show you ads, there is no legal requirement to do it. I don't care about their commercial interests but care a whole lot about my time and interests, I feel no obligation to do it, nor care if some ad-supported thing will stop existing. Like fuck them lol.
Lol, you get exactly what can be expected when dealing with m*scovites.
