Reminded me of the 2016 dystopian short film HYPER-REALITY,<p>where AR technology is used for exactly the opposite:<p>superimposing ads and a million other virtual distractions over the real world.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;YJg02ivYzSs?si=YkiRZ60HZYnXglUP" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;YJg02ivYzSs?si=YkiRZ60HZYnXglUP</a>

At some point ad block technology will have to evolve to simply use physical force to eliminate all ads at their root cause: marketing departments and, ultimately, capitalism.<p>I propose this will be the fully automated luxury gay space communist revolution. It will free the memes of production, and destroy all marketing departments and ad copy.
