      I genuinely believe ads are a form of pollution. The pollution they spread is psychological but it’s pollution nonetheless, ads exist to make us feel bad about something enough to make a purchase and why shouldn’t things that exist to make us feel bad be removed from our environment?

        Absolutely. It’s loud, bright, disruptive and disrespectful. And it can make some things and places less accessible. In the last 5-7 years it’s really gone out of control. We need serious regulations.
