Do you consider ads on cable TV to be spam? Likely not. Like them or don't, but the ads on FB are not spam because they are not unsolicited and are targeted.

- jononor 8y agoOf course I do. It is one of the reasons I do not have a TV. If there was a plain choice between without ads and with (probably at different prices), I could accept them as a transaction I have accepted. But such choices are often not available, they are bundled in with a bunch of other choices.
- zodPod 8y agoAgreed on all counts! It's pretty weird that we pay really good money for TV and then still have to sit through commercials, isn't it?
- 0x445442 8y ago100% agree. I hate paying for TV which still has ads. It's why almost all content I consume through the flat screen in the living room now is either Netflix, Amazon or Youtube. About the only thing I watch OTA or via Sling now is sports. And I was born before Nixon was President.
