In my administration there will be a strict law that the transit time between any two terminals in any airport cannot exceed 15 minutes. Airports that fail will be entombed in a concrete dome like Chernobyl.

I know the oblique argument - the whole ecosystem only makes financial sense if ads are supporting it. It's good for the user to have content, and you only have content if there's money jn it for creators, right? Still. This experience does not delight.

I dream of a web without ads. It shouldn't be like this. I know all of the arguments for why it is like this, but none of them makes the experience of ads less intrusive or less bothersome. The internet largely does not have the user's interests at heart.
