Weird how people are saying it should work, lol. Blocking YouTube ads with pihole most definitely does not work. Cannot work even, it’s just how YouTube works.

I’m afraid that using something like a googletv stick (or nvidia shield etc) and installing smarttube is your best bet.


Pellet gun, that travels like 100m at most.



That’s super wrong. Typical ai hallucination since it’s not in training data (Claude is quite new).


Never sign in anywhere, or at least with fake, temporary accounts.

When ordering things send it to a pickup point, not home address. Preferable by fake name, but hopefully they don’t want to see your ID.

Use a privacy focused email server.

Clear cookies after you leave a website, install an addon to generate a fake random browser fingerprint.

Never go on any website where you enter your real name and address.

Be sure to renew your vpn public ip address often. Be sure you can trust your vpn provider.

Turn off WiFi and Bluetooth when going outside your house so they cant track you that way. Stores do that nowadays.

Avoid being seen by public security camera’s.

Make sure your friends and family don’t post and tag your face or name anywhere.

Hope your cellphone provider, isp, healthcare provider, etc don’t sell your personal data.

Basically impossible to not get tracked at all, but you can get quite far.


Eventually they will just use server side authentication that the ads were displayed properly and the best an adblocker can do is draw a grey rectangle over it and mute your tabs sound.


The problem is that it’s not just cartoon characters, but also realistic looking people. That makes it, especially in the next years when the techniques improve, impossible to know what is fake and what is not and thus the fake ones should also be banned. And these models are trained on images of actual abused children, which of course is the main problem with this.


Ok a bit offtopic, but is this really ransomware or just a fullscreen ‘ad’ that you can easily close? I wasn’t aware of ransomware on phones.


Please, with all the dragnet laws and the sharing of that data with foreign agencies there is no privacy.

Not to mention all the cameras everywhere.
