If you are paying for this shit, you are part of the problem.
Or just tolerating this shit, if you have the "fuck me with ads only" plan.

I'm not sure even that even sways them. They think it won't happen to them.
Because right now they think he was a lone nut job. It couldn't possibly happen again. We need to prove them wrong.
Man, I'm so mad I want to upvote this, even though I think it's a lot more complicated than that.
It's just a historical fact

- Ditch all paid streaming apps.
- Research how Stremio, Torrentio, and Real-Debrid work together.
- Never pay to see ads ever again.
it's very difficult for me to describe to other people how good this setup is. it's not "check home assistant" good. it's not "use 1password to store your passwords" good. it's almost "just download more ram" good
Exactly, it's really the perfect combination, to be honest. For what? $3 a month? Outrageous?
Or go to one of the streaming websites like 123 movies or whatnot and use an ad blocker. Same experience to an extent.

Except you have to watch out and buy TVs that don't show ads by themselves these days...
To prevent this from happening, you should always check RTINGS first before buying a TV (or any electronics, for that matter). Scroll down to the "Ad-Free" section for the review of the TV you're considering.

All I know is that Lexus Texas (that is what TX means to me) sounds like the name of a porn star. Is that the message Lexus wanted me to take away from their advertising and branding?
I would immediately cancel any service that does that.
I actively avoid advertising. I've cancelled Amazon prime now it has advertising.
I got Sky's Internet TV here in the UK - a supposedly premium service yet the first VOD demand show I streamed I found it had adverts and you had to pay more to be able to fast forward through them. I immediately cancelled.
These companies are greedy as fuck, and driven by the stupidity of always trying to be "growing" to grow their share prices. That just means always trying to save money and take more money from their customers. Enshittification is a result of the stupidity of the stock markets.
I was on Amazon Prime for years.
Then in the space of one year they decided that listening to an album in order was now a "premium" feature, and that ads would be shovelled into everything.
Sure, I lost the "free" shipping, so now I hardly buy anything from Amazon either. I see this as an absolute win.

"Our'research has determined that we can fill up to 90% of the visual field with advertisements before inducing seizures!"
Corporations all genuinely want to be that guy so fucking bad, just because they think that if they do become him, they might actually starry to finally feel something... anything. Or they think if they become that guy their father might say "I love you " for the first time or some other sad "this is why I'm a serial killer" shit.
Why would anyone put up with the attack that is advertising? If it requires you to watch ads, it's not worth it. You wouldn't sit through a free movie if it meant a stranger showing up every few minutes and offering to let you rim them, (it's not that no one wants what their offering, it's that they don't care whether you're interested or not. They're still going to show you their asshole) why would you allow a similar violation of your mind?

I found the answer! It's https://help.hulu.com/article/hulu-cancel-hulu-subscription
And while you're at it, you should also try this:
Okay, let's not go mad. This is a streaming service. They are greedy assholes but they aren't actively killing people.
Meh, I like this better.
Ooh, I know the answer!
Dropped Hulu so very long ago.
