Charlotte Aten<p>Paying bills at the end of the month has become so painful. Aside from the actual financial details, I still have to block ads from apartment complex, phone company, etc. after uBlock Origin does its thing. Some of these are really shameful, like offering to split rent payments to every two weeks if you take out a pay-day loan at crazy interest rates every month. Then I'm also blocking "AI answers" when I shouldn't have to search so hard to find "Pay Bill" in the first place. No, I'm too close to the edge to turn on autopay, just charge me $10 more a month to subject me to more ads, thanks. Then when I do pay it's "Looks like something went wrong! Please try again." and an email confirming payment in my inbox.</p><p><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/uBlockOrigin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uBlockOrigin</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Adblock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Adblock</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/bills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bills</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/advertising" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>advertising</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/spam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>spam</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/scam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>scam</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/rent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rent</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Capitalism</span></a></p>
