When my elderly, and tech illiterate family ask how to switch from Windows; I’m sorry but I’m not telling them to use Linux because they’re going to harass me nonstop for tech support.

At best this will be the year of macOS, because there’s a store I can send them to for all their questions.

They either get paid by the click, or paid upfront if they’re big enough. Me watching them recite the marketing material for Raid, Nord, Raycon, Better Help, or any other scam/landfill they’ve chosen to sell doesn’t affect them financially.

DNS-based Adblock like NextDNS (paid service), or PiHole (DIY option). Sadly that won’t skip sponsored segments though, you’ll still have to hear all about whatever scam or wish.com garbage they’ve decided to shill.
