Just you wait. You’ll see “This bike lane brought to you by Chevrolet” in under a decade.

And then once enough people buy the premium membership they’ll start putting ads on those, too.

They will get the market share of us few weirdos who haven’t just accepted this shit. They will lose out on advertising revenue, have to charge more for gas, and will go out of business.

They’ll start putting ads in the bike lanes

Voting with your money sounds about as effective at influencing things as actual voting.

Your money is the squeak of a mouse against the thunderclap of advertising money.

If they lose a couple weirdos like us but get to sell eyeballs, they’ll do it.

Neither of those work at the gas station nearest my house. In my frustration I began running my fingers up and down the buttons and found that if you press the second from the top on both sides you get into an administrative screen. Pump still works fine and the ad is muted, and it resets when I leave.

Imagine how much worse America would look if every state had that same law.
