AI is most useful for surveillance and social engineering. It’s no wonder all the fascists love it.

I’ve compared average monthly bandwidth before and after implementation of dns based ad blocking and it has reduced my usage from anywhere from 33% to 45%.

They have been implying that ad blocking only saves the dns request, which is the most ridiculous ignorant claim I’ve ever seen.

No, raw bandwidth savings would likely be very significant. You do realize that for many webpages the ads are most of the bandwidth? On my network (I have capped internet so this is important) if I run dns ad blocking my total bandwidth is 40% less.

Of course, because ads have zero bandwidth. /s

Are you an idiot?

An entire team.

A study published in a medical journal showed that Facebook (primarily) along with other social media was responsible for the rise in teenage suicide in girls. Let that sink in.
