I know how advertising works, but i don't see 3rd party ads as directly "selling the data of the users". You include an ad that is visible inside the page. At most, you are sharing the page view with an ad company, but you are not communicating any of the data you have collected to the ad server. It's up to them to create a profile/track. "Selling access to your audience" is not the same as "selling your own data to an ad company".

Your knowledge of the advertising world is roughly 20 years behind the state of the art.

  It's not really. most people just put an ad tag on their page. It's adtech services that profile the user using their own data and trackers. The process remains the same.
