Paper press and TV did really well for decades. Sure, once targeted advertising came around, everyone jumped onto it and non-targeted advertising started to fall. But if targeted advertising would be outlawed, most of that budget would just return to other advertising channels. Other advertising channels as in not-targeted ads in websites/youtube/etc. Classic paper and tv are gone for good IMO.
> TV channels have a ridiculous amount of ads and they engage in all kinds of shady practices to sell you on something you don't want
Not much worse than interwebs if you disable AdBlock&friends...
- Mirioron 7y agoI think TV ads are much worse than ads on the internet. Imagine YouTube, where you have to watch an ad that's a fifth of the length of the video for every video. 10 minute video? 2 minutes of unskippable ads. Right now we tend to have skippable ads that are much shorter.
