AdNauseam - Clicking Ads So You Don't Have To
adnauseam.io
A browser extension that clicks on every blocked ad to fight advertising surveillance.

It garbles advertisers’ data as a result, but you must disable uBlock Origin to run it; they can’t work simultaneously. I recently moved to it and, so far, am never looking back!

    lol

    furthermore: lmao.

    you’ve got to try a lot harder to “rustle” me, but I like your moxie for thinking you did, sport

    doing the math, even the cheapest phone plans that don’t explicitly exclude data, nowadays include at least 1GB of data for free. Usually more. Almost any reachable amount of outbound requests to click on ads would barely put a dent in your data allowance.

      Now the name calling. Cool, dude.

      I’ll concede the data plan dent thing; I hadn’t done any math regarding that. Thanks for clarifying that to me and everyone else!

      But you did say “none” so I just pointed out the fact that it’s not none. It’s some. I wasn’t wrong to point that out. No matter how much of a stickler you find me for that.

      But that’s no reason to post images implicitly depicting me to be some kind of fat nerd.

      You’re a rude person. Autistic or not.

        I accept your concession, better luck next time.

        pedantry is pedantry, if you interject with “well ACKSHUALLY” over literally a couple kilobytes of data in this, the Year Of Our Lord 2025 where common storage device sizes are in the multiple terabyte range, and 100mbps down/10 up is exceedingly common, expect to be called one. It is functionally none, because it is not 1993.

        Autistic or not.

        can’t even come up with your own insult for me, just gonna steal that sad attempt at bait from the other guy? how… underwhelming, must do better. 🤡

          Huh?

          I accept your concession

          K.

          if you interject with “well ACKSHUALLY”

          Those are your words, not mine. 😛

          where common storage device sizes are in the multiple terabyte range,

          I was talking about data sent over a network, not stored on disk. 🤷‍♂️

          My god. I’m not “out to get you” here, this isn’t Reddit, will you fucking relax, dude? I thought you said that you were autistic? Maybe I misinterpreted you. Maybe it was someone else.

          All good how? Ready to drop the insults? ❤️
