No. Because if you have money to spend, then your ad spots are worth more than the average. And if you are so rich you can afford to pay not to see ads, those spots goes up even more. If you are so rich you can afford to pay this increased rate, those goes up even more.
There used to be a time where ads on the internet were, if not outright illegal, then at least considered like spam is today. I am not sure we wouldn't be better of if we didn't go back to to those classifications.
- giobox 8y agoI’m honestly not sure that time ever really existed. Ads were as much a part of print before the web as they are part of the web today. You could maybe make this argument about popups before browser vendors killed that behaviour off, but ad banners where still a thing even with those. The idea that they were ever even close to “outright illegal” is almost certainly a stretch in the vast majority of legal systems.
