This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Usually you just redirect some host names to localhost and all your ad problems magically disappear.
Google is spending half their R&D budget trying to prevent this on YouTube.
Google folks aren't stupid to serve ads from different host in their yt.
And yet, I've still not seen an advert on youtube since.. 2020? maybe? Sometimes it spins a bit while ublock and youtubes advertising code fights it out, but its almost never stopped working.
They're dumb as fuck, or they know what they're doing is dumb as fuck. But the emporer must have their new clothes and something must be done at the great expenditure of manpower specifically to enshittify the internet further.
If the google folks weren't stupid, they'd be doing something else. Atleast they're not the same goobas running Azure.
I wouldn't want to be an apparatchik in that org.
Yea they may be a bit clever but they're no match for the guy with no budget in his underwear using his free time to go against them
Yeah its like.. one side has to pay to fight the war, the other does it for the sheer joy of upsetting the former group
Its a losing battle, and only one that "works" if the consumer is a dumbass.
