I can't believe a paid OS needs a tool like this. Here's a GUI tool called OFGB (Oh Frick Go Back) to remove all the ads in Windows 11. It's understandable if a free OS or app needs ad support, but this is just crazy github.com/xM4ddy/OFGB

I want to make a script for Linux that adds ads everywhere. It would be tricky with Wayland but not impossible. It could start by installing browser extensions.

Na just throw ads into system logs. Or do what Ubuntu does and throw an advert every time you run apt upgrade.

And call the script "Windows"

There is a special place in hell for you lol.

If they were fake ads like in GTA and Cyberpunk, it could be fun, provided you could turn them on and off anytime.

I'll use the Google Ad platform

From there I'll encrypt all your files and make you watch an ad per file to access your data
