    It's not only the World Cup, it's everything, everywhere, all the time. We are drowning in marketing messages. It's gross.

      AR glasses with ad blocking would be a must-buy for me…though how would I learn about it?

      Seems like a good feature for AirPods too, though the new CEO Ternus seems committed to the opposite.

        Instead of blocking the ads you could even replace them with satirical slogans that mock those ads like "BUY", "CONSUME", "CONFORM" etc.
