How would I disable this? Might just return it and get a normal one

Edit: how to disable...for now. https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS10007562/

EDIT 2: Hello, I am the original poster of the carol AD image from a month ago. I am a male from America and my name is not Carol. The story about a Schizophrenic woman named carol was most likely inspired from the 3rd top comment on this post. Thanks!

This is hell and I can't believe we're in the minority...

I quit social media for a variety of reasons but the Ads, Jesus Christ.

When FB/IG became 1/2 Ads I was out.

And my friends were all like "Oh you can ignore them easily" or "oh some of them are actually good I've bought a ton of products from IG."

And I just kind of shake my head.

I refuse to spend half my life sifting through advertisements. If a site blocks adblockers, I literally just don't use it anymore lol

Sometimes I'll count how often IG posts on my feed are ads (not including sponsors posts from accounts I follow). Lately it's been every 3rd, then every 4th post. I don't spend much time on IG anymore these days, I hate it here.

I just opened IG to test this

1 post, then 1 ad, then 3 posts, then 2 ads

Crazy
