[psychobabble]

decent rant; makes sense.

My biggest gripe of visiting TPB in the past 6 or so years is just this: the inane, mostly porno, sometimes gamer-centric adverts. I don't use adbblock or whatever because I don't need to in 99.999% of my yearly transactions. But seriously wtf is up with the ads on tpb? I can only assume these are the only ad providers that are willing to work with them, which kinda makes sense but also sucks for legit users.

I wonder about the passive implication the writer presents here, that the persistent targeting and raids are related to their public relations and advert content.
