You can still target content rather than users.
- JohnFen 8y ago> You can still target content rather than users. Indeed you can. By "inseparable", I don't mean technically inseparable, I mean that the advertising industry has decided that personally targeted ads are the only sort of value. That means that, unless there is some sort of sea change in the industry, the two things are inseparable in practice. If I see an ad, I can safely assume that it comes with spying. I'll be right far, far more often than I'll be wrong.
