@Roundcat Same for me! It never occurred to me to think of it that way explicitly though. The moment I heard the idea, yes!, absolutely!

Same here. I find ads intolerable, will turn away at first sight, repeated exposure (which is part of the concept!) is like scratching the skin over and over in the same spot.

My city is chock full of them. Horrid screens that play bright images, even with motion. At nearly every bus stop. At every big intersection. Many subway stations are nearly unusable.

I cannot go out anymore in #Hamburg without a basecap, essentially the only reliable irl ad bocker, just because some assholes decided to take over our public space with their junk, arguing that making us see these images is more important than anything else including our mental health, while the city government aids and abets them in all possible ways (!).

I'm in the process of seeking a diagnosis, once I get it I will certainly try to sue them.

(Sorry for barging in with this grievance, but it seemed on topic 😃)
