I missed that whole thing with streaming, fortunately. I’ve never seen Spotify. I’ve seen Tiktok (because it’s EVERYWHERE) but never bothered to check out an account and never clicked past the first link when someone shared a video. I’ve never looked at Instagram. And I’m 100% with you on ads: I’m ad-blocked to the hilt to the point that the very few times I’m forced to use an unprotected Internet (like, say, at a colleague’s desk) I’m amazed anybody can find anything behind all those damnable intrusive ads.
I’m also glad I never adopted streaming and a lot of that stuff, i did have ig for a while but the thing’s trash. I agree I can’t see how some people just accept ads, algorithms and honestly what amounts to visual and auditory contamination thrown at them all the time.
