This is a two-panel edited meme using a popular scene from *Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse*. In the first panel, three Spider-People stand together: the main Spider-Man has the AdBlock Plus (ABP) logo over his chest, Spider-Gwen speaks the line "It can't be that easy.", and Spider-Man Noir has the Mozilla Firefox logo over his chest. In the second panel, the three characters are dressed as waiters, still with the ABP and Firefox logos, as the line "It's that easy." is displayed. The meme communicates that switching away from Google Chrome to Firefox and using an ad blocker to avoid ads is a very simple process, countering the assumption that making this switch would be difficult.

To ditch Chrome and ads for free

This is a two-panel edited me…

This is a two-panel reaction meme. The top panel uses a scene from the animated series *Dan Vs.* where the character Dan is pushing a person out of his apartment door, with a standard YouTube playback error message overlaid on the upper half of the panel, reading 'An error occurred. Please try again later. (Playback ID: j94zduZMbpZvG5M-) Learn More', implying the error is triggered by the use of an ad blocker. The bottom panel shows Dan looking visibly angry and frustrated, with bold white capitalized text below him that states 'I'M STILL NOT TURNING OFF AD BLOCK'. The joke expresses widespread user frustration with YouTube's anti-ad-blocker policies, showing that many users would prefer to deal with playback failures instead of disabling their ad blockers to watch content.

Screw Off Youtube, I'm Not Turning Off Ad Block

This is a two-panel reaction …

This is a single-panel relatable meme that expresses the common sentiment of internet users who refuse to pay for YouTube Premium and use ad blockers despite YouTube's repeated anti-adblock warnings. It features an angry cartoon character (Dan from *Dan Vs.*) standing and frowning up at the viewer, with top text reading 'I don't care how many scare screens you show me' and bottom text reading 'I am not paying for YouTube'. The joke targets YouTube's recent aggressive crackdown on ad blockers, where the platform shows intrusive warning popups (called 'scare screens' here) to pressure users into disabling ad blockers or purchasing a subscription.

Using ad blockers go brrrrr
