Use a custom DNS to block stuff like this. PiHole, nextdns, adguard etc.

Both uBlock Origin *and* my piHole are blocking `prod.vodvideo.cbsnews.com` (which is the video autoplaying). My browser (Librewolf) also blocks it - `as blocked because the triggering iframe has the sandbox flag set.`. Stuff like this always is down to your own set up.

Swapped Google for Ecosia

Brave for Librefox (also swapped Firefox Nightly for Iceraven on mobile)

Swapped Uber for Bolt/Uber Eats for Just Eats

Let's hope that doesn't happen because oh boy, the consequences would be significant.

I grew up working class with parents on welfare living in government housing. I did, in-fact, actually have to leave my couch in order to improve my living conditions and am acutely aware of the consequences of rising rent, rising energy costs, stagnant wages, and high food prices.

Most of us don't get the choice to be full time internet activists unfortunately.

A blockade doesn't work if you can't defend it. They can do whatever they want but actions have consequences.

nobody in America cares about the non-Palestinian Middle East enough for “some” to rally behind him just because he bombed some Yemenis

Your average American *does* care about the economy and price of common items, oil, etc, and Houthis bombing the most important trade route in the world directly effects that.
