  • This video introduced me to adNauseam as well. I also had no idea the FBI recommends use of an ad blocker.

    • Oh, I've been using it for years already, just very miffed at Google banning it and doing their darnest to ruin adblockers in Manifest v3. Except for their pet ones that allow google ads, of course. Thankfully Firefox is still the least terrible modern browser and even has it as "Recommended".
