    Ads?

    "Hi, I'm calling about your recent interest in furry related content. We at Furry Fetish inc recently mailed you a catalogue of our products... Oh...you haven't recieved it yet? Well, no worries. It was sent to 324 North Street..oh... You live on 325 North Street? No worries, your name is printed in large so whoever received it knows that is was for you and will probably deliver it to you..."

    Interest based ads that everyone who has connected to the same wifi as you will now see. And it's not just interest based ads. They will use this to calculate your whole personality and manipulate you and others based on that.

    I'm happy to assist anyone on my wifi with installing an adblocker.

    And unless google is using my data to hang a personalised billboard on my way to work, I'm not gonna be seeing any of them.
