    I was going to read the article but but jfc the ads. I decided to go watch ads on my computer instead. Soon I’m going to go drive in my car and look at ads. I will also play YouTube and watch ads. When I get home, I play to do a little ad surfing on the internet. After that I’m going to pick the best ads I saw and buy their products. Then I’m going to use their products while getting to view the ads associated with them.

    I’mma be honest. If I’m shopping and see one of these things “working”, I’m dropping everything I’ve selected for purchase where I stand and walking out. Nothing I can do, but vote with my wallet… so I will do that.

      Since I first saw em, I refused to use em. Pay workers or pay me to check myself out.
