Youtube adverts are an obvious evil, especially since all I use youtube for is music streaming, and bastards who didn't even create the content are using adverts to scrape a few extra pennies. But QR codes annoy the shit out of me. They have absolutely no fucking purpose, unless you think people are genuinely going to scan an advert on a bus shelter to learn more about Kellogs cornflakes or something. Just put the url, and we can click on the bastard if we really need to. I have still never seen an ad on youtube. AdBlock presumably kills them. And as a non-phone-user, my only thoughts about QR codes on are that viewed as an abstract pattern they slightly improve the aesthetic appeal of the world, but nowhere near enough to compensate for the feast of vileness that housed them. Feast of vileness is way more unattractive than "artifical intelligence."

'FoV' referes to the ads. You did know that, yeah?

You know what I mean. Just go back to the 90s. Has anyone noticed their attention span turning to shit too? Yes! Some cutting edge work being done now looking into concentration, creativity, brain pathways, etc., We are being rewired. Time away the electronics does have a benefit, but it has to be concentrated and consistent. Quiet, Walking, Meditative practice, and the Amino acid Tyrosine, might also have some concentration benefits. We are in the early days, so some of the cost/damage and needed repairs are not fully known affecting 4 current generations.
