Ads Are The Worst

Expose the companies that violate your time and attention with intrusive ads — and save your money for the companies not on this list.

For years, advertising operated under a basic social contract: it could ask for your attention, but you were free to decline. It was a passive intrusion that stayed in the background.

Seemingly overnight, the entire industry decided that this no longer applied. Autoplaying videos, forced interactions, fake content, and unskippable ads emerged, each engineered to capture attention without consent.

The only leverage consumers have is where we choose to spend money. AdNauseam helps you use that leverage. Report the worst offenders and help build a public record of companies that don’t deserve your time or business.
