nopreserveroot··on Ask HN: Effective methods to fight depression?
On the subject of depression meals— pre-prepped salads are a great way to combat this. They're cheap, easy to make when you're having a good day, and you can make a few days worth in advance. When you're feeling down all you have to do is put it in a bowl, and you have a healthy meal.

Hopefully my edit makes it more clear for you.

If the reason the ads bother me is relevant to your point, you should have stated that.

EDIT: Ads bother me because they are a security hole, so you're saying I should only visits sites without them? Please.
nopreserveroot··on DeleteFacebook: Perspective from Mastodon
This discussion is veering off course. Well made adblocking removes 'native' ads as well. Product placement is irrelevant to my point, as it does not utilize my stolen demographic info to drive marketing decisions. And though you delude yourself into thinking that you are successfully ignoring ads they are still influencing you in subtle ways.

They can collect all they like, but if you never see any advertisements, it has little influence over you. I was not commenting on the violation of privacy these bad actors commit through the collection.

That's company policy and not the fault of the license. EDIT: Unless you're making modifications to the software, the AGPL does not apply.

EDIT2: http://www.affero.org/oagf.html#How_does_this_license_treat_...

Specifically, the question, "How does this license treat commercial enterprise use over intranets and internal networks?"

That is not how Copyleft software licenses work at all. All the AGPL gurantees is that 'Bigco' must contribute back to the community any modifications they make to the software.
