Is it not possible to create an ad network that only supports static targeted ads? The ad network itself can run its own JavaScript, but I don't see any reason to allow the advertisers themselves to run scripts inside ads, other than to make the ad look a bit flashier and interactive.
- zeta0134 7y agoIt's perfectly possible. The problem is that these very scripts the ad network are serving are what people are objecting to. Exactly these scripts, and exactly this tracking. It creeps people out.
- XCSme 7y agoI think the best solution so far is for advertisers to just purchase banners on the sites their target audience is on, just like in the old days. Maybe use something like BuySellAds to find and buy "directly" from that niche site, but BSA is pretty bad.
