       @icedquinn @aurynn Advertising is literally an attack on someone's mind and wallet designed to trick them into buying a product they neither want nor need. It is a form of brainwashing, objectively malicious in 99.999% of scenarios, and should not be tolerated under any circumstance.

       @aurynn this could be good, because flagship instances might be more likely in need for ad-money. If people are annoyed enough, they might move to smaller instances

       The ads plugin should only happen on their local timeline. If they do it any other way they will be swiftly punished by the network

       @aurynn I could do that, but I'd rather point and laugh.
