Such better ads are not patented, and switching to pleasant text ads like the industry leaders leaders did would make ad blockers a marginal phenomenon.
The risk is that advertising would also become a marginal phenomenon.
- a3n 11y agoIt's amazing to me that so many smart minds in content outlets can't figure out a way to make money other than ads, particular privacy invading ads. It's been said often enough and long enough to sound tired, but we really are products, not customers. The entity that a content outlet cares about is the ad networks. NOT you. The content is just a bug zapper meant to attract you in.
