What's the academic terminology for "go pound sand"?

Pay or fuck off, no ads.

Contrary to what you seem to have understood with my previous post, I'd be absolutely fine with this.

I will block any and every ad I possibly can using all technology available to me. Does that break someone's business model? Too bad. Do I care if all this glorious ad-sponsored content goes away forever because of the actions of me and others like me? Not even a little bit. In fact, I will welcome the day that ad blocking gains enough momentum that it causes businesses to go under or restructure their entire operational model. If ads are the only way something can exist, then it deserves to die.

In case it wasn't clear enough: I don't care.

I've been working in the IT/Internet industry for over 30 years, in one form or another. I understand how things work and I probably have a better perspective than most on how dysfunctional we have become.

I hope they listen to him and/or he starts directing how they should do things from the ground-up.

I hate Windows and would love to see ruined too.

As a long time working the ops side of things as a Unix/Linux admin, I love docker with k8s. The devs. can have whatever kind of ignorant environment setup they want. As long as the final image passes security, is up to date, and I can define the deployment parameters, it's 100% on them how well it works in production.
