      Use an adblocker. Unless, you mean people go on the internet without using protection?

        That won’t make a difference. Reddit knows how much traffic they get and they use that number to sell ads

        They do. Either due to technical ineptitude (like approximately everyone’s parents) or, and that might be worse, with the conviction of doing “the right thing,” like a friend of mine.

      Junk data that costs the advertisement without a return on investment

        That’s not how it works. Reddit is able to even get interest because of traffic counts. Same for IPO values

          If you’re blocking their ads and not logged in, you are costing them.
