    Theyre smart to that already, most of the ad pumps I’ve run into have speakers hidden inside the housing that you can’t access anymore, and the “bottom left button on the screen mutes the ad” trick is disabled.

    At this stage I just boycott those stations, leave a 2 star review on Google and deal with paying an extra 15c a gallon a couple blocks away.

    Edit: Jesus Christ y’all are way too quick to jump straight to felony vandalism over fucking advertisements

        God i hope the gas machine ad venders are not actually billion dollar companies. I wonder whos responsible for the madness? What fucking jackass was like “How about screaming gas stations?” “Ya im talking about ear breaking ads!” and then packaged it up and sold it.

          ??? The gas station is the company. Of which all are multi billion mega corps that all have openly astroturfed and without denial decided to cause the species of human to end in return for taking the last remaining money from poors for their last death party alone with three hookers that no longer can even pretend to like them

      Why not just build your own dirty nuke from parts you got on the dark web and use it to wipe the city block containing the offending gas station off the map completely?

      EDIT: Sorry, got to this discussion a little late

      Why not walk on some railroad tracks until you find a railroad spike lying around?

      Then you could take that spike and stab the screen. 8 screens taken out, and the gas station can’t pump gas anymore. You’d think they get the message before they get to the 8th. If not? Oh well. Their loss.
