Here's an idea: let people have a public advertising profile they have personal access to. I'd do a lot less adblocking if I knew advertisers were picking off a defined list of my interests. New iphone? No. Android flagship with a headphone jack and a telephoto camera? Oh yeah I'm interested. Allow people to make it known they're interested in classic computers or new rifle accessories or LEGO videogames or books from John Scalzi. It would be nice if advertisers knew enough about me I could cancel all my Google Alerts.
