This is not a SFW instance. NSFW communities will be tagged, and efforts will be made to keep SFW communities clean, but proceed at your own comfort level.
Okay so you know how Ad Naseum is a thing? It’s like uBlock but it clicks on ads to fuck with advertisers?
I wish we had something like that for youtuber sponsors built on top of SponsorBlock. Like imagine it finds the affiliate link, signs up for this shit using a burner email, and then the bot doing this deletes itself.
It makes the youtuber look bad, it makes the brand look bad, and you feel like a gigachad for doing it.
Is it possible? Maybe, but realistically I believe this is a form of fraud, so I imagine no one would do this, BUT I WISH IT DID EXIST!
You had me in the first half, but very quickly I realized we went opposite directions with that idea.
Like, I would absolutely love a program that automatically followed affiliate links for whitelisted channels that I watch. Obviously I wouldn’t want it to buy things, but it would allow me to show a little bit more support.

Just replied to a comment above but yeh I’d love something like this. Something that punishes or profits (in my favour) from pushy advertising.
This should not be fraud. It’s simple resistance.
