Removed Adsense ads
Posted: Wed Mar 17, 2021 12:56 am
The US now requires Google to force non US residents to pay taxes which I think is absurd so I decided to just pull off all the Adsense ads. (who does not use an adblocker these days, so you probably won't notice anything different anyway... 
)
At some point I want to run ads myself that way I'm not relying on a 3rd party but for now enjoy the site ad free. When I do run my own ads I will be sure to keep them non intrusive and they also will not do any of the spying crap that Google does. I've been meaning to do this for a long time anyway as I really don't like this age of everything spying on you, so I was a bit of a hypocrite to use the ads in first place. This was the straw that broke the camel's back.
