I, for one, specifically go out of my way to not purchase things that have been advertised to me, but I also only see about one ad per year on average, because ads are a known malware vector and not blocking ads is just bad security hygiene. Not having to constantly be force-fed capitalism slop is just a nice side benefit.

But yeah, my particular 'tism mostly manifests as spite in this case, and from what I’ve heard tell from other Lemmings I’m in pretty good company in that regard with this group. We just need to figure out how to export that spite to the common man.
