Looking at my current filtering on Mastodon, and thinking about what my old Usenet killfile used to look like, and realizing that so much of modern computing is about both enabling and then filtering advertising.
We've got glorious 4k 24 bit displays that we can update in real time, capabilities I would have *loved* in the early '90s, and we're using it to autoplay ads for shit I already bought.
