I remember visiting a friend over a decade ago, and for some reason I had to use their computer for a bit. I was immediately thrown aback by all the ads everywhere and installed an ad blocker before anything else. They were very grateful, but the part that surprised me was they were annoyed by the ads but never thought to look for some way around it. It never even crossed their minds it could be done or to search for it.

All human progress in history has been due to a VERY small handful of people who think “this is bullshit, things could be better”.

The vast majority of people accept what they see as the way things are and it never occurs to them that things could be different.
