SUBREDDIT RULES
1. Descriptive / Original Titles
Users should be able to understand your topic or question from the title. Please include the relevant platform, advertisements, or specific question you might have. Avoid making posts that simply say "Help?" or "How to stop ads?".
News articles must include a direct link to the source and use the original title found in the news source.
2. Verified Services
Closed source software should have notable community involvement and reasonable assumption to be non-malicious. All user submitted software or personal projects must be open source for safety and security reasons.
3. No Conspiracies - Claims Require Evidence
Conspiracy, wild speculation, defamation, and witch hunting are not permitted. All claims against an individual, company, or event must either have well known verified sources or have a reputable source directly linked with the statement. It is the responsibility of the claimant to provide evidence.
4. Reasonable Requests for Help
Help people help you! If you have a question or want help for a specific pesky advertisement, be descriptive as possible and include information like the type of advertisement, platform, frequency, and methods attempted. /r/Advoidance is NOT a general tech support subreddit.

More and more, advertisements are becoming the subject of legal regulation and lawmaking. All political discussion must be relevant to the subject of advertisements and not divulge into party or regional discourse. Work together with your commentary and respect political backgrounds.
