    We should all just collectively aggree to boycott the products of whatever ads we see. Make it known to advertisers that this is our stance. “Next product that I see in an ad that interrupts my video today gets a 3 month boycott”, etc.

      Millennials do that for any ad on the internet because it was a scary place where you would lose your computer from a bad link or numb.exe

      Personally I think if they can afford an ad then they are overcharging me

      I do that. But i hardly see any ads to begin and most i see are things i wouldn’t buy anyway.

      But it’s clear that that would never work. In a microcosm you can see it with video games. “Guys, if you stop pre-ordering video games…” I’LL PREORDER THEM EXTRA HARD NOW BECAUSE YOU TOLD ME TO. I NEED TO PRE LOAD THE GAME SO I CAN PLAY THE MILLISECOND IT’S OUT. IT’S MY MONEY I DON’T CARE.
