Unlike other tragedy of the commons scenarios, we don't actually know what will happen and if it'll be positive or negative. We just know that the current state of things is not great.
The ad world has caused some really shitty optimizations to flare up among sites supported by ads. Optimize for clicks and eyeballs instead of quality.

- scrollaway 9y agoNobody said the content is bad everywhere. I'm saying ads are causing optimizations on terrible principles, doesn't mean everyone is following them. Furthermore your comment is akin to "if junk food is so bad for you why is everyone eating it and saying it tastes good". It doesn't take much imagination to understand that there's other factors at play.
